Access to the Internet is an increasing problem in many areas of
the world. As the popularity and usefulness of the Internet
increases on a daily basis, lack of access to the technology is
putting many groups at a disadvantage in terms of better education,
better jobs and even in terms of higher levels of civic
participation. However, creating a network infrastructure to
serve outlying communities and sectors of the population is not
straight-forward.
This book brings together all the aspects of the problem -
technical, regulatory and economic - into one volume to provide a
comprehensive resource. It describes the latest technological
advances that allow cost-effective network infrastructures to be
built, and places them in the context of the applications and
services that the infrastructure will deliver. A section on
business models and case studies from North American and Europe
demonstrate that the solutions are economically and practically
viable.
This book is essential for anyone looking to gain an
understanding of the issues and technology surrounding the access
debate. It will be of particular relevance to network
engineers/designers/planners at the incumbent operator companies
charged with delivering broadband access to as yet unconnected
regions. Governments and regulatory bodies will also find
this a useful guide to the problems that they may face.
