Abstract
In this talk we will discuss the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) data-rate increases possible with the Dynamic Spectrum Management (DSM). We will discuss some of the DSM techniques such as level 3 Vectoring and level 2 Band Preference. In particular, studies of bounds of spectral balancing find Band Preference as a practical method that provides the highest possible Level 2 performance in bundled or unbundled DSL environments. Investigations of vectoring begin with differential vectoring and show very high DSL data rates. These data rates increase further through the use of full-binder vectoring, leading to projections of feasible DSM vectored implementations of multi-100Mbps DSLs. We will discuss some configurations in which gigabit per second DSL (GDSL) is feasible on lengths of 150 to 300 meters of 4 twisted pair. Basically the full binder capacity of 4 drop wires is examined with 6 dB of margin and the usual 4 dB of coding gain to find that rates that exceed 1 Gbps are possible in a DSL of 300 meters or less.
