Very high speed Digital Subscriber Line type 2 (VDSL2) systems can achieve significant bit
rate values depending on the access network architecture and how far‐end crosstalk (FEXT) …

In the Mediterranean region, ecosystems are severely affected by climate variability. The
Italian Peninsula is a hot spot for biodiversity thanks to its heterogeneous landscape and the …

VDSL2 achieves high bit rates thanks to far-end crosstalk suppression and proper selection
of the access network infrastructure. In this paper, we consider one architectural solution, …

In this paper, we analyze two techniques allowing to significantly improve the bit rate per
user in the current and future FTTx access networks. They are based on the possibility of …

The growth of self-installed femtocells in residential and office environments triggers harmful
femto-to-femto interference levels. In order to overcome this problem, we suggested that …

The self-installation nature of femtocells sharing the same frequency band can lead to
