Abstract
At present Optical fibre cable is used as media to design long/short network and it supports high bandwidth in Gigabits per second speed. Earlier OFC is used to connect the long distance places and called Optical transport network and presently used even in local/Access network called Optical Access network. In present environment data to be transmitted is so high due to growth in internet. Successful transmission of such a huge bandwidth is big challenging job for long distance network designer. This paper aims to explain the design and planning of a Passive Optical Network (PON) based wireless fibre to the Home architecture. The purpose is to show the behaviour of links of optical fibre when the signal goes through all the elements such as optical fibre, splitters, multiplexers and the goal is to find a good quality of signal in all receivers. The final goal pursued with this paper is to evaluate the performance of the whole system. The steady increase in the demand for broadband services and the consequent increase in the volume of generated traffic in our communication networks have motivated the need to implement next generation access networks in our territories. To develop multimedia telecommunication networks as an infrastructure, it is necessary to install highly reliable optical fibre cable network architecture like PON based fibre to the Home Network. In a point-to-multipoint architecture, PON is an appropriate architecture to provide high bandwidth for many customers. For any Internet Service Providers, the biggest challenge is to design an efficient access network like PON to ensure the QoS and maintenance of that network that includes Identification and Rectification of cable faults in that access network within short time thus enabling efficiency and reputation of ISPs. So this work deals with design and analysis of access network like PON and also the maintenance of the access network which includes Identification and Rectification of optical fibre cable faults in PON based fibre to the Home Network. The quality of this fibre infrastructure/network is monitored by Optical Time Domain Reflectometer for observing losses and fibre breaks and its efficiency is improved by Centralized Fault Detection System. The hardware implementation of the access network like PON based wireless fibre to the Home Network and the testing instruments are also considered for fault identification.
