Abstract :
Fibre to the home and other dasialast-milepsila transmission technologies provide end-user data rates of at least 100 of Mbit/s. These technologies are currently deployed around the world, and in the short term gigabit-class home access networks will be required if this capacity is to be fully used, and new services are to be developed. In order to meet this goal, the Home Gigabit Access Project (OMEGA, EU FP 7-1) aims at a range of transmission techniques and intelligent control. A significant part of this effort is devoted to two areas of optical wireless communications.
