Summary

It is a well-known fact that peripheral regions often lack of reasonable broadband Internet services. Landlines are often outdated or have very high attenuation. WLAN and FSO (Free Space Optics) are license free transmission technologies and DVB-T has become a geographically widespread technology. This paper will show an alternative Internet access method using WLAN and FSO systems as a data uplink and DVB-T as a downlink channel for broadband data access.

Zusammenfassung

Es ist eine bekannte Tatsache, dass ländliche Regionen oftmals nur mit schmalbandigen Internetdiensten angebunden sind. Die zur Verfügung stehenden Kabelverbindungen sind oft überaltert oder haben hohe Dämpfungswerte. WLAN und FSO (Free Space Optics) sind lizenzfreie Übertragungstechnologien, und DVB-T ist eine sehr weitverbreitete Technologie geworden. Diese Publikation zeigt eine alternative Internet-Zugangstmethode, bei der WLAN- und FSO-Systeme als Datenrückkanal und DVB-T als Vorwärtskanal für breitbandige Internetverbindungen verwendet werden.
