Description
Pre-requisite CSC 3353, and recommended CSC 5365 and CSC 5366
Broadband networks employ a wide variety of technologies to support integrated multimedia applications (data, voice, audio, image, video) at multi-
megabit/ second access rates. Broadband networks comprise LAN, MAN, WAN, and access networks. In particular, the evolution of the Internet to a broadband network with a wired/ wireless access is most important. This course, after a review of the two broadband WAN technologies (FR, ATM), consists of three parts. Part 1 covers the emerging broadband and QoS aspects of the Internet. Part 2 focuses on broadband access/ transmission solutions. Part 3 deals with voice/ video/ image encoding for broadband applications.
