摘要：With the intention to meet the increasing demand of future higher bandwidth applications, fiber based Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) access is considered best resolution to deliver triple play services (voice, data, video). Hence, it becomes obligatory to migrate from traditional copper-based network to fiber-based. Due to rapid technological evolution, tough competition and budget limitation the service providers are struggling to provide a cost effective solution to minimize their operational cost with extra ordinary customer satisfaction. One of the factors that increase the cost of overall Fiber To The Home (FTTH) network is the unplanned deployment resulting in utilization of extra components and resources. Hence, it is imperative to determine a suitable technique, which helps to reduce planning process, required time and deployment cost through optimization. Automation based planning is one of the possible ways to automate the network design at probable lowest cost. In this research, a planning technique for migration from copper to fiber access network with a manageable and optimized Passive Optic Network (PON –FTTx) infrastructure is presented identifying a cost-effective strategy for developing countries.
