7/25 read an article about some company up there which has developed
an method to transfer high bandwidth using phone line- Actelis
"Actelis overcame a longstanding problem of cross-talk, the
interference caused by transmitting such vast amounts of data
over copper wire with low capacity - interference that leads to
high error rates in the data. "We get around this using spatial
division multiplexing," says CEO Yuval Baron, explaining that the
company has developed an algorithm that allows for error
correction, letting high amounts of traffic to pass over copper
wires without a problem."
I was under the impression that the encoding wasn't the problem-
it was the power required. The FCC has an upped limit on the
amount of power which can be trasmitted over the phone lines- And
from what I know Higher bandwidth means you need higher signal /
noise means higher power going through the lines. This is the
limiting factor involved with 56K modem how they such as the FCC
doesn't let them go higher. They let the phone companies get away
with DSL as those go through different switches- so what am I
missing here? How sure how this company can make money in the
long run given FCC regs, competition with DSL, compeition with
cable, and Long haul capacity underutilized.
thoughts comments....
\_ Hey, this was the first one that wasn't drivel.
\_ no, it's still drivel. if someone else had posted a link to the
story and made some coherent comments it might not have been.
\_ wasn't the post signed by psb? and yes, it was total drivel
and completely random question that didn't follow from
the story.
\_ i'm gonna keep putting drivel in motd.kinney even if it might
be fake kinney. making fake drivel is pretty lame anyway so
i'm gonna hope no one bothers.
\_ Did we read the same post? The one I read was a question
about transmission limits imposed on communications equip.
by the FCC as it related to a new technology. It seems to
be a non-drivel question. |
