Next-Generation FTTH Passive Optical Networks
Author: Josep Prat
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402084706
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Fibre-to-the-Home networks constitute a fundamental telecom segment with the required potential to match the huge capacity of transport networks with the new user communication demands. Huge investments in access network infrastructure are expected for the next decade, with many initiatives already launched around the globe recently, driven by the new broadband service demands and the necessity by operators to deploy a future-proof infrastructure in the field. Dense FTTH Passive Optical Networks (PONs) is a cost-efficient way to build fibre access, and international standards (G/E-PON) have been already launched, leading to new set of telecom products for mass deployment. However, these systems only make use of less than 1% of the optical bandwidth; thus, relevant research is taking place to maximize the capacity of these systems, with the latest opto-electronic technologies, demonstrating that the huge bandwidth available through the fibre access can be exploited in a cost-efficient and reliable manner. Next-Generation FTTH Passive Optical Networks gathers and analyzes the most relevant techniques developed recently on technologies for the next generation FTTH networks, trying to answer the question: what’s after G/E-PONs?

Pages : 366
Book Description
"In the last hundred years or so, most of the firmament has been taken from us. We are Less for our loss of the sky, but Norman Davidson has given us the boot straps we need to pull ourselves back up to heaven...or at least for a good look at it" E.C. Krupp (from the foreword). Sky Phenomena leads readers from the stars as seen from Earth, through the Sun, Moon, and various planets to the Copernican revolution, to comets and meteors, and to the sky of the Southern Hemisphere. The text includes mythological and historical aspects of the subject and has numerous exercises for the student. The final chapter is a unique collection of poetry related to the stars from ancient India to modern times.

The Idea Mine
Author: Paul JJ Payack
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1469715856
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 165
Book Description
What I present to you here is an Idea Mine. This Idea Mine, which consists of nearly one thousand creative works, has taken some twenty-five years to construct, create and compile. In this Idea Mine are dozens, even, scores of hidden gems that are ready for you to discover—and ready to assume their proper place in the world of ideas (today rather unceremoniously referred to as 'content'). Many of the works collected in this Idea Mine have been published in such places as The Paris Review, Creative Computing, and the Gnosis Anthology (English and Russian), while the collages have appeared in such varied outlets as New Letters, Boulevard, and Asimov’s Science Fiction. (For years I belonged to the Science Fiction Writers of America, but I do not classify myself as a science fiction writer.) During my career I’ve served as a senior executive for marketing and communications at several of the world’s leading high technology companies, including Legato Systems, Intelliguard Software, Intersolv, The Network Systems Corporation, Dun & Bradstreet, Unisys, and Apollo Computer, Inc. During this career, I have contributed to over $6 billion in growth. I’ve also had the dubious privilege of watching these very same enterprises shed billions in market value and employees by the tens of thousands. Timing is everything.
