在澳大利亚农村和偏远地区提供无线高速宽带服务的挑战和机遇：西部唐斯地区（WDR）案例研究
The challenges and opportunities of delivering wireless high speed broadband services in Rural and Remote Australia: A Case Study of Western Downs Region (WDR)
摘要：
本文严格评估无线宽带互联网基础设施，在农村和偏远社区的WDR的供应，需求和利用。20个城镇中只有8个城镇有ADSL/ADSL 2+，只有3个城镇有4G移动网络覆盖。相反，所有的城镇都有2G/3G移动网络覆盖，但在速度、服务可靠性和高峰时段处理数据流量负载的能力方面存在问题。偏远地区的卫星宽带互联网充其量也是断断续续的。对现有无线宽带互联网服务的满意度在西部发展报告的农村和偏远社区之间差异很大。最后，我们提出了改善农村和偏远社区宽带互联网接入的建议。需要公共和私人投资以及有线和无线宽带互联网基础设施的共享，以提供回程网络和4G移动和固定无线服务，确保为农村和偏远社区提供高速、可靠和负担得起的宽带服务。
英文摘要：
This paper critically assesses wireless broadband internet infrastructure, in the rural and remote communities of WDR in terms of supply, demand and utilisation. Only 8 of 20 towns have ADSL/ADSL2+, and only 3 towns have 4G mobile network coverage. Conversely all of the towns have 2G/3G mobile network coverage but have problems with speed, reliability of service and capacity to handle data traffic loads at peak times. Satellite broadband internet for remote areas is also patchy at best. Satisfaction with existing wireless broadband internet services is highly variable across rural and remote communities in WDR. Finally we provide suggestions to improve broadband internet access for rural and remote communities. Public and private investment and sharing of wired and wireless broadband internet infrastructure is needed to provide the backhaul networks and 4G mobile and fixed wireless services to ensure high speed, reliable and affordable broadband services for rural and remote communities.
