Advanced Signal Processing for Digital Subscriber Lines

"The recent deployment of digital subscriber line (DSL) technology around the world is rapidly making broadband access for the mass consumer market a reality. The ever-growing customer demand for higher data rates has been fueled by the popularity of applications like peer-to-peer (P2P) filesharing networks and video-streaming and high-definition television (HDTV). DSL technology allows telephone operators to get maximum leverage out of their existing infrastructure by delivering broadband access over existing twistedpair telephone lines. At the heart of DSL lies a plethora of signal processing techniques which enable such high-speed transmission to be achieved over a medium originally designed with only voice-band transmission in mind. These advanced signal processing techniques address many challenges that exist in DSL networks today, such as the near-end and far-end crosstalk (NEXT/FEXT), impulse noise, peak-toaverage-power ratio (PAR), intersymbol and intercarrier interference (ISI/ICI), radio-frequency interference (RFI), and so forth. The goal of this special issue is to discuss the stateof-the-art and recent advances in signal processing techniques for DSL"
