Title
Next-generation converged networking in Korea: The concept and its R&D activities.
Abstract
In Korea, we witness vivid evidences of changing trend in communication that insist the emergence of new networking architecture. To accommodate the changing trend and to hold current strong position in global IT industry, Korea have launched broadband convergence network (BcN) initiative. BcN vision for Korea is to be the first in the world to realize converged network infrastructure and ubiquitous service environment. In this paper, we have introduced the concept and the vision of BcN with a viewpoint of a new paradigm to prepare future-proof communication environment. And then, we have disclosed BcN research and development (R&D) activities including R&D philosophy, R&D phases, and key technologies required. Also, we have discussed current development issues in three technology branches including service and control technology, unified transport technology, and next-generation access technology.
