The use of ATM techniques in an evolutionary access scenario
W.T. Carter, Sherri Johnson · International Journal of Digital & Analog Communication Systems · 1990
Abstract The paper describes an approach to providing an integrated access environment from customers to the network, as an example of the new access techniques whose performance and control must be considered. The ability of ATM‐based systems to satisfy the needs of such networks is discussed, and the distinctive control and performance requirements of ATM are considered.
