Experimental Evaluation of Capacity Statistics for Short VDSL Loops

We assess the capacity potential of very short very-high data-rate digital subscriber line loops using full-binder channel measurements collected by France Telecom R&D. Key statistics are provided for both uncoordinated and vectored systems employing coordinated transmitters and coordinated receivers. The vectoring benefit is evaluated under the assumption of transmit precompensation for the elimination of self-far-end crosstalk, and echo cancellation of self-near-end crosstalk. The results provide useful bounds for developers and providers alike.©2009 IEEE. Personal use of this material is permitted.
