TEACHING: Subjects GENERAL INFORMATION
OBJECTIVES
This course shows most important architectures implemented currently for telecommunication services in both public and private networks. First, an introduction chapter resumes the historic development of networks to their corresponding evolution in future. Next chapters describe the current architectures at a logical level (switching, routing) from traditional circuit switching and ATM to IP networks and next generation IP like IMS. At the physical level, it’s considered a spectrum from PDH to SDH and its evolution to next generation SDH. The objective of this course to provide the student a perspective of the architecture evolution from service dedicated networks, integrated services networks to the last concepts of a service platform where different access networks are integrated with a unique core network (Next Generation Network), implemented by traditional operators, or Next Generation Internet, that is going to be implemented by service and Internet transport providers (ISP/PTP). SYLLABUS
Lesson 1. Introduction (4 h).
Historical development of telecommunication networks. Future perspectives. Telecommunication networks classification and models.. Lesson 2. IDN,ISDN, PDN, Frame Relay (6h non-presential +2h presential).
