Reprint ADSL Binder Modeling: Signaling and Data Transmission

This paper presents a simulation model of a binder of asymmetric digital subscriber lines (ADSL). The model is developed in the Simulink environment and enables the investigation of multicarrier communication aspects in the complex system of a loop binder interconnecting the customer premises with the nearby central office. Key features of the model architecture are the update of the model block parameters during simulation and the interconnection of the simulation environment with a reprogrammable hardware platform that facilitates the substitution of selected model components with prototype circuit modules. The mixedlevel setup of the ADSL binder model and the hardware platform constitutes a versatile environment for the development and investigation of new single-modem and/or centralized algorithms for the ADSL technology.
