Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line

1) ADSL is a form of DSL technology that provides asymmetric data transmission over copper telephone lines, enabling both faster downstream and upstream data rates than traditional dial-up internet. 2) ADSL works by using frequency division to split the telephone line into separate bandwidths for downstream and upstream data transmission, with downstream capable of higher speeds. 3) Key components of an ADSL network include an ADSL modem in the customer premises, a DSLAM at the central office, and a connection to the internet service provider.

ADSL

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line

Keshav kumar Ece/08/337

Introduction
ADSL is a form of DSL, a data communications technology that enables faster data transmission over copper telephone lines ADSL is capable of providing up to 50 Mbps, and supports voice, video and data. ADSL is the #1 Broadband Choice in the World with over 60% market share ADSL is now available in every region of the world

What does ADSL mean


Asymmetric - The data can flow faster in one direction than the other. Data transmission has faster downstream to the subscriber than upstream Digital - No type of communication is transferred in an analog method. All data is purely digital, and only at the end, modulated to be carried over the line. Subscriber Line - The data is carried over a single twisted pair copper loop to the subscriber premises

ADSL standards :
Standard name ITU G.992.1 ITU G.992.2 ITU G.992.3/4 ITU G.992.3/4 Annex J ITU G.992.3/4 Annex L ITU G.992.5 ITU G.992.5 Annex L ITU G.992.5 Annex M Common name ADSL (G.DMT) ADSL2 ADSL2 RE-ADSL2 ADSL2+ RE-ADSL2+ ADSL2+ Downstream rate 8 Mbit/s 12 Mbit/s 12 Mbit/s 5 Mbit/s 24 Mbit/s 24 Mbit/s 28 Mbit/s Upstream rate 1.0 Mbit/s 0.5 Mbit/s 1.0 Mbit/s 3.5 Mbit/s 0.8 Mbit/s 1.0 Mbit/s 1.0 Mbit/s 3.5 Mbit/s

ADSL Lite (G.Lite) 1.5 Mbit/s

ADSL Range
In general, the maximum range for DSL without a repeater is 5.5 km As distance decreases toward the telephone company office, the data rate increases Data Rate Wire gauge Wire size Distance 1.5 or 2 Mbps 24 AWG 1.5 or 2 Mbps 26 AWG 6.1 Mbps 24 AWG 1.5 or 2 Mbps 26 AWG 0.5 mm 0.4 mm 0.5 mm 0.4 mm 5.5 km 4.6 km 3.7 km 2.7

For larger distances, you may be able to have DSL if your phone company has extended the local loop with optical fiber cable

ADSL Speed Factors


The distance from the local exchange The type and thickness of wires used The number and type of joins in the wire The proximity of the wire to other wires carrying ADSL, ISDN and other non-voice signals The proximity of the wires to radio transmitters.

ADSL network components


The ADSL modem at the customer premises(ATU-R) The modem of the central office (ATU-C) DSL access multiplexer (DSLAM) Broadband Access Server (BAS) Splitter - an electronic low pass filter that separates the analogue voice or ISDN signal from ADSL data frequencies DSLAM.

How does ADSL work


ADSL exploits the unused analogue bandwidth available in the wires

ADSL works by using a frequency splitter device to split a traditional voice telephone line into two frequencies

ADSL Modulation
Modulation is the overlaying of information (or the signal) onto an electronic or optical carrier waveform There are two competing and incompatible standards for modulating the ADSL signal: Carrierless Amplitude Phase (CAP) Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT)

Carrierless Amplitude Phase


Carrierless Amplitude Phase (CAP) is an encoding method that divides the signals into two distinct bands:
1. The upstream data channel (to the service provider), which is carried in the band between 25 and 160kHz The downstream data channel (to the user), which is carried in the band from 200kHz to 1.1MHz .

1.

These channels are widely separated in order to minimize the possibility of interference between the channels.

Discrete Multi-tone (DMT)


Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT) separates the DSL signal so that the usable frequency range is separated into 256 channels of 4.3125kHz each. DMT has 224 downstream frequency bins (or carriers) and 32 upstream frequency bins. DMT constantly shifts signals between different channels to ensure that the best channels are used for transmission and reception.

The DMT frequency bands


Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM)

Echo Cancellation

Asynchronous Transfer Mode


ATM is a connection-orientated technique ATM provides cell sequence integrity Cells are much smaller than standard packet-switched networks (53 bytes) The quality of transmission links has lead to the omission of overheads There is no space between cells

Types of ATM services


Constant Bit Rate (CBR) Variable Bit Rate (VBR) Unspecified Bit Rate (UBR) Available Bit Rate (ABR)

ATM Layer
The ATM layer transport information across the network ATM uses virtual connections for the information transport The connections are divided into two levels: The Virtual Channels The Virtual Path This mechanism is used to provide quality of service (QoS)

ATM Connections
The connection between two endpoints is called a Virtual Channel (VC). A Virtual Path (VP) is a term for a bundle of virtual channel links that all have the same endpoints. Each VC and VP has a unique identifier Virtual paths are used to simplify the ATM addressing structure.

ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL)


The ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL) converts information from the upper layers into ATM cells The standard used for ATM over ADSL services is AAL5 AAL5 Encapsulation Methods Virtual Channel Multiplexing (VCMux) LLC/SNAP For detailed information please refer to the RFC 1483

Conclusion: Pros & Cons


Why ADSL?
Simultaneous Internet and voice/fax capabilities over a single telephone line Uninterrupted, high-speed Internet access that's always on-line Cost-effective solution for society Data Security that exceeds other technologies Fast download speeds

ADSL disadvantages:
Distance-sensitive Slower upload speeds Phone line required
