Harmonizing FDX and FDD to Minimize ACI Impacts in 10G Networks
- Examining the standards-based features necessary to minimize the increasing impact of adjacent channel interference (ACI) for the future 10G networks
- Reviewing current ACI research and adding new data to provide a comprehensive overview of ACI as it applies to both frequency division duplex (FDD) and full duplex DOCSIS® (FDX) networks
- Offering recommendations for the minimization of ACI in the future 10G networks with a focus on FDD access networks
