Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase I year
1992
Phase I Amount
$49,800
This project investigates coding processors for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) in broadband ISDN (B-ISDN). Specifically, the processors will be operated at 650 Mbps, 5.0 dB gain with rates exceeding 0.75 for the ATM Header and for the information field. With an intended cell-loss probability of 10-10, a loss-cell-recovery mechanism will be provided. The scheme is based on novel multiplexing, parallel processing, and a new coding combination.

Potential Commercial Applications:
B-ISDN is the guiding principle of all future telecommunications satellites and for fiber optical cables. Presently known applications include cable television, high quality or high definition television, switched multi-megabit data service (SMDS), and high-speed LAN, MAN and WAN.
