Abstract :
Broadband networks are indispensable for multimedia applications over the emerging Internet and Intranet. The very large scale integration (VLSI) has become a critical factor for cost reduction and performance improvement in broadband communication systems. In this paper, we study all kinds of VLSI technologies and show the optimal partition of the system functionality based upon the available VLSI processings. We demonstrate that the VLSI can provide the best solution for the performance, cost and quality of broadband networks
