The Wireline Channel

The Wireline Channel


• The channel is limited by a low pass filter at the central
office (CO), BW  3.5KHz
• The attenuation of the channel is proportional to the
length of the subscriber loop (twisted pair)
• Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Far End Crosstalk (FEXT).
• Transfer function of wire channel 2  kL f
Hc ( f )  e
• Transfer function of NEXT 2
HN ( f )  f 3/ 2

• Transfer function of FEXT 2


HF ( f )  f 2
