Abstract: The present invention provides hybrid access network architecture to provide broadband data, voice and video services over Internet Protocol. The hybrid access network comprises a wireless distribution system which has wireless mesh network nodes acting as wireless repeaters. Each of these wireless repeaters comprises of at least 3 wireless radios. The hybrid access network comprises of plurality of Broadband over Power Line (BPL) nodes, each node consisting of 2 modems and 4 wireless radios. Each of the BPL nodes acts as a repeater. The hybrid access network terminates the wireless traffic with fewer hops and has a very fast low latency BPL backbone of 1-3 milliseconds latency.

Abstract: A system and method for ranking results derived from various analytical processes for a concept selector is disclosed. The method ranks the concepts extracted for information input to a concept selector by semantic mapping and contextual mapping techniques. Information is input to a concept selector. The concept selector may then analyze the input information to select list of matched synonyms, generate concept relationship maps, concept database maps for the matched concepts from its databases. In addition, content provided from the web page may also be analyzed by the concept selector for mapping the concepts. Further, obtained list of matched terms, keywords and concepts are sent to the ranking module for ranking the results. The ranking module may rank the results obtained based on pre-defined filtering techniques such as semantic rules, business rules and so on. The ranked results are output by the concept selector.
