Gradual Deployment of Next Generation Networks Continues in Western Europe
Western Europe has the densest and most advanced telecommunications network in the world. All countries in the region have dense PSTN networks, constructed over the twentieth century by publicly owned national incumbents. Since the 1980s, rival networks have been constructed, with the development of ISDN, mobile telephony, data, cable TV and fibre networks. New technologies, including wireless networks, power line communications, 3G mobile networks and satellite broadband, add to the mix in the twenty-first century.
A key development in the first decade of the twenty-first century is the gradual deployment of Next Generation Networks (NGN) moving to a packet-based, full service typology.
