The paper describes the activities of the Italian national research project ROAD-NGN ‘Optical frequency/wavelength division multiple access techniques for next generation networks’; the project aims to investigate and experiment new technological solutions to facilitate the migration of access systems from copper to optical fibre, and to help the integration with broadband wireless architectures, with particular interest for the backhauling of the fourth generation (4G) Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. The approaches, based on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) techniques, can enable the unbundling of the local loop (ULL) and are upgradable toward very ultra wideband systems.

Abstract

The paper describes the activities of the Italian national research project ROAD-NGN ‘Optical frequency/wavelength division multiple access techniques for next generation networks’; the project aims to investigate and experiment new technological solutions to facilitate the migration of access systems from copper to optical fibre, and to help the integration with broadband wireless architectures, with particular interest for the backhauling of the fourth generation (4G) Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. The approaches, based on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) techniques, can enable the unbundling of the local loop (ULL) and are upgradable toward very ultra wideband systems.
