Future 10 Gbit/s-TDM systems demand high-speed circuits with a high level of integration in order to be reliable and cost-effective. The building blocks of a 10 Gbit/s-system and a four-part chip-set (16:1 multiplexer, laser-/modulator-driver, AGC-amplifier, 1:16 demultiplexer) are described. The results show the suitability of Si-bipolar technologies for this data rate.

Neural networks with back-propagation learning algorithms are applied to the prediction of traffic fluctuation in circuit-switched telecommunication networks. The selection of the neural network structure and input/output musters are discussed in detail. The prediction of traffic with neural networks is simulated and then compared with other prediction methods. The results show that neural networks can reduce the prediction error extensively. This forecasting method is then combined with adaptive routing, and the simulation shows that the performance of telecommunications networks, the sum of end-to-end blocking probabilities for all node-pairs, can be improved.

Based on nonlinear dynamics theory, this article presents an artificial neural network (ANN) blind equalizer associated with its nonlinear dynamic equation and its stability conditions. Simulation results indicate that this ANN blind equalizer has a very strong tolerance of and adaptation to the time-varying high speed channel. The bit rate of its equalized channel can be as high as 10 Gbps.

We present an analytical method to evaluate the performance of the buffered Banyan network based ATM switches. The switching elements in the interconnection network are provided with a buffer which is shared among all the inlets and outlets of the element. This approach is a iterative computational method. It is based on an approximate discrete time finite-state Markov model of a switch. We present an exact analysis of the 2/spl times/2 and 4/spl times/4 switching element with a shared-buffer. Performance measures of interest in the ATM switching fabric are computed. The load, buffer-size and input/output size has an influence on the performance which is demonstrated in curves. Compared with the simulation method, the analytical technique is more accurate especially in heavy load conditions.

In the future the existing transport network will be enhanced by adding a new network layer based on optical frequency division multiplexing. This network is characterized by an efficient cross-connecting of very high bit rate streams (10 Gbit/s or higher) carried by an optical frequency channel. In case of a cable break or node failure a huge amount of data will be lost. The high traffic concentration in all-optical transport networks makes network restoration of paramount importance. A scheme for restoration methods is presented. Four methods are assessed qualitatively and quantitatively using a ten node sample network. The results indicate that the cost for the redundancy to be installed may be high in all cases.

In a typical land mobile radio system, the received signal usually suffers from multipath fading, severely degradating the service quality. Equal gain combiner (EGG) is a powerful means to combat multipath fading and has long been used in practice owing to its good performance and ease of implementation. Nevertheless, the error probability of the EGC in a closed form is still not available in the literature. By formulating the problem in the framework of signal detection and evaluating the probability of error directly from the characteristic function (CF) of the signal at the combiner output, we obtain closed form solutions to the probability of error for the EG combiner with two or three branches operating over a Rayleigh fading channel.

This paper describes a short distance single-mode optical fiber data transmission system, which is constructed using an AO mode space frequency modulator, in which an edge-emitting LED is used as a light source. The output frequency responses for the 0th and 1st order beams from the AO mode space frequency modulator were flat over the frequency range of DC to 3.5 MHz when a squarewave frequency modulation (SWFM) was accomplished. When 12 channels of SSB data modulated the squarewave carrier at a frequency of 2.5 MHz, the obtained SWFM signal was transmitted over a distance of 5 km through single-mode optical fibers.

This paper proposes a two-microphone technique for noise reduction and acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) in hands-free communications. Contrary to the standard cascaded structure, this new structure includes a preprocessing which allows to reduce the noise influence on the AEC system. The efficiency of the new structure is proved through objective measures and listening tests.
