Abstract: |
This chapter discusses the role of telecommunications infrastructure in the development of the Information Society.
Specifically in this chapter will be presented: • A brief historical development of telecommunications infrastructure • The liberalization of telecommunications and the regulatory framework • The axes of release (unbundled local loop access, spectrum licensing, collocation of telecommunications infrastructure, right of way) • The unbundling of the local loop (Local Loop Unbundling), available formats and services via LLU • Definition of the broadband access • Wired and wireless broadband access technologies • Technologies Digital Subscriber Line (xDSL) • Fiber Optic and optical network cost models • Wireless broadband access technologies (Wi-Fi, WiMAX, 3G / UMTS, LTE, LMDS, Satellite) • Broadband penetration (internationally and in Greece) |
