Abstract

This paper proposes a next-generation access network infrastructure by NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation.) The solution for providing both broadband and narrowband multimedia services is the ATM-PON (ATM-passive- optical-network) based FTTH (fiber-to-the-home) access network. Additionally, an MPEG-ATM encoder has been developed in order to provide CATV services in a full-digital residential network. This is a compact, economical, and easily-maintained multi-channel MPEG2 encoder, which is designed with custom LSIs for MPEG2 encoding and one-board circuits for each channel. NTT has been examining these systems in residential broadband service trials since January 1996. An outline of the trials and major features of the systems are presented.
