Abstract:
Gigabit home networks represent a key
technology to make the Future Internet success a reality.
The OMEGA European project [1] aims to define and
demonstrate such networks. Consumers will require
networks to be simple to install, without the need of any
new wire. To achieve this, gigabit radio links and wireless
optics communications will provide wireless connectivity
within the home and its surroundings. Power-line
communications potentially combined with robust RF will
provides a home backbone ???without new wires.??? To make
this network ubiquitous, seamless and robust a technology-
independent MAC layer will ensure its global control and
provide connectivities to any number of devices the user
wishes to connect to it in any room in a house or a flat. In
order to make this vision come true, substantial progress is
required in the fields of optical-wireless and RF physical
layers, in protocol design, and in systems architectures.
