Technical
Research Objectives The overall objective of the proposed work is to develop and
demonstrate all of the critical elements necessary for the implementation of high-capacity,
high-performance, cost-effective, all packet-based converged fixed-mobile
access networking solution. The specific scientific and technological
objectives of the proposed project are as follows: (1) Develop a fully-distributed Ethernet-based converged multiservice
networking architecture that enables the integration of next-generation
fiber-based Passive Optical Network (PON) and Fourth-Generation (4G) mobile
broadband access technologies, (2) Demonstrate and quantify the performance of a fully distributed
multiservice packet-based converged fixed-mobile transport infrastructure, (3) Develop a unified control plane that manages and controls both
fixed optical and mobile radio network resources for the hybrid FiWi access
architecture. This calls for new integrated wireline and wireless radio
control algorithms and procedures that operate in a distributed manner
(including bandwidth allocation, handover control, radio resource management,
admission control, etc.), (4) Develop time-efficient strategies for collaborative, distributed
QoS-aware dynamic network resource allocation and packet scheduling schemes
that are specifically tailored to a hybrid architecture, while at the same
time conforming with the signaling and control standards of each access
technology separately. |
