  • United States Court of Appeals for the DISTRICT of COLUMBIA CIRCUIT
    USCA Case #17-1210 Document #1736835 Filed: 06/20/2018 Page 1 of 4 United States Court of Appeals FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT No. 17-1209 September Term, 2017 FILED ON: JUNE 20, 2018 PMCM TV, LLC, PETITIONER v. FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION AND UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE ANTITRUST DIVISION, RESPONDENTS CBS CORPORATION, ET AL., INTERVENORS Consolidated with 17-1210 On Petitions for Review of Orders of the Federal Communications Commission Before: GRIFFITH, WILKINS and KATSAS, Circuit Judges. J U D G M E N T These cases were considered on petitions for review from the Federal Communications Commission, and on the briefs and oral arguments of the parties. The Court has afforded the issues full consideration and has determined that they do not warrant a published opinion. See Fed. R. App. P. 36; D.C. Cir. R. 36(d). It is ORDERED and ADJUDGED that the petitions for review of the orders of the Federal Communications Commission be DENIED. Petitioner PMCM TV, LLC obtained a license from the Federal Communications Commission to operate television station WJLP in northern New Jersey on radio-frequency channel 3, the same radio-frequency channel used by PMCM’s predecessor station in Nevada. However, the FCC assigned WJLP virtual channel 33, the channel to which viewers tune their televisions in order to watch WJLP. The FCC did this to protect the “Channel 3” brand identity of intervenor broadcasters that already used virtual channel 3 in service areas that overlapped with that of WJLP. For similar reasons, the FCC refused to require cable operators to carry WJLP on cable television as “Channel 3.” PMCM seeks review of both decisions.

  • MLT Verification Codes Link the List of MLT Verification (VER) Codes Is Given Here to Assist You in Identifying the Trouble After the MLT Is Performed
    MLT Verification Codes Link The list of MLT Verification (VER) Codes is given here to assist you in identifying the trouble after the MLT is performed. VER RESPONSE DESCRIPTION No obvious trouble was detected on the line. However, there may still be a problem with parts of the loop that were not tested. For example, there might be a problem in the station set, on a crossbar line, or in the Central Office (CO). When the system tests ok you 0 TEST OK will see that the DC resistances and voltage will not indicate a problem. The AC signature will be valid (if done), the line ckt will be ok and the system can draw and break dial tone. Balance should be good. VER_05 (zero five) is applicable to all switches and applies to both integrated and universal DLC loops. It indicates that all metallic tests passed, but that the channel test was either not made, didn’t complete in time or the returned results did not match the acceptable signatures. It does not mean that the channel is bad. TEST OK - CHANNEL For IDLC in 5ESS switches, it may be an indication that there may 05 NOT TESTED be a shortage of transmission test facility (TTF) responders. (The TTF performs the ISLC channel tests). This VER Code applies to the LTF, LTS, DCTU and CMU test heads. With this VER Code, the RSA may be able to arrange a front end close out as no trouble affecting the loop has been identified. NOTE: Length of loop is not given with this Ver code.

The BER of each channel can be investigated individually. The user can adjust the number of spans (transmission length), switch off/on the fiber nonlinear- ities and modify the EDFA noise figure. Application Example 2 Title Performance of NRZ, RZ, and Duobinary modulation format in 10 Gbps transmission Description The setup compares the performance of the NRZ, RZ, and Duobinary modulation formats in a single channel 10 Gbps transmission. The BER obtained with each modulation format are displayed against the accumulated dispersion or the OSNR. The user can adjust the OSNR (respectively the accumulated dispersion) as well as the 3 dB bandwidth of the optical filter in front of the receiver. S. V.

    FEDERAL REGULATION AND COMPETITIVE ACCESS TO MULTIPLE-UNIT PREMISES: MORE CHOICE IN COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES? LYNNE HOLT* & MARK JAMISON** I. INTRODUCTION The nature of competition in the United States’ communications sector changed significantly over the past two decades. Before the 1990s, ‘‘competition’’ referred to the fight among providers of discrete services, such as the contest among AT&T, MCI, and Sprint over the long- distance slice of the communications pie. Today, competition is much more likely to describe the fight over the entire pie, among firms offering a ‘‘triple play’’ of services----high-speed Internet service, video, and t e l e p h o n y ----over a single broadband platform. Some firms recently expanded the pie with a ‘‘quadruple play’’ that includes wireless services as well. Cable operators, traditional wireline telephone companies, and, increasingly, wireless providers are competing to offer consumers both the underlying broadband platform and various bundled services that ride across it. However, not all consumers benefit from this competition in like manner.1 Public policy deliberations tend to focus more on differences in access to communications services either between consumers in rural and * Dr. Lynne Holt, Policy Analyst, Public Utility Research Center, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611-7142, [email protected]. ** Dr. Mark A. Jamison, Director, Public Utility Research Center, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611-7142, [email protected]. The authors appreciate the review by Mr. William Cox, Able Band Chartered, and his suggestions for improving an earlier version of this paper. 1. For example, the staff of the New York Public Service Commission found differences between geographic areas in terms of the competitive alternatives that customers enjoyed.

No.: Q020/Q060 Project No.: 0900610F-01 s Center for Telecommunications and Advanced Technology McLean, Virginia ABSTRACT This paper introduces some of the newer broadband wireless communications alternatives and describes how they could be used to provide high-speed connections between fixed, transportable, and mobile facilities. We also describe the new integrated service technologies – devices used to bundle voice, data, and video services for transmission over a single link. In this case, it’s a broadband wireless link. Together, the new broadband wireless and integrated service technologies can be used to provide efficient, cost effective, and flexible multi-service provisioning. We introduce this concept and discuss its potential for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).

  • PS-102 Dominic Ruggiero New Developments in FTTH
    PS-102 Dominic Ruggiero New Developments in FTTH 2012 FTTH Conference & Expo: The Future Is Now – Dallas, Texas New Developments in FTTH Dominic Ruggiero-FTTH System Engineer Multicom, Inc 1076 Florida Central Parkway, Longwood FL 32750 [email protected] (800) 423-2594 (407)-331-7779 Table of Contents Introduction 3 PON Systems 4-5 Next Gen Networks 6 User Applications 7 Conclusion 8 New Developments in FTTH- Dominic Ruggiero 2012 FTTH Conference & Expo: The Future Is Now – Dallas, Texas Introduction It's been almost three decades in the making, but fiber to the home (FTTH) is finally emerging into the mainstream and is set to transform the telecom environment worldwide over the next decade. FTTH represents the first major upgrade to the access network since the deployment of cellular infrastructure in the 80s and 90s, and like cellular, it is likely to have a deep impact on the entire supply chain, including technology vendors and network operators. Over the next 15 to 20 years, copper access networks worldwide will be largely replaced by a fiber access network, creating massive opportunities for vendors, network builders, and service providers. The most important catalyst for this change is a growing perception that copper access networks will soon no longer be able to meet the ever- growing consumer demand for bandwidth, driven mainly by the Internet, IP, and the many services running over it. At the same time, competition to move customers onto complex service packages that include video is leading some to conclude that they must be first to deploy fiber, pre-empting or frustrating future competition.
