Integrated service delivery in short-reach in-building networks can cost-effectively be implemented using POF. Its bandwidth limits are overcome by advanced modulation techniques. In larger buildings, wavelength routing in an SMF point-to-multipoint topology improves network performance.
Delivery of wirebound and wireless services can be integrated in a single cost-efficient in-home POF network, when using advanced signal modulation techniques. In larger buildings, dynamic capacity allocation by wavelength routing improves the network performance.
Blocking performance of an optical WDM-TDM in-building network is significantly improved by dynamic wavelength routing. We analyse optimum clustering of users which reduces system complexity while largely preserving network performance improvement.
We compare the CapEx and OpEx of in-building networks for fibre and Cat-5E solutions. For residential homes, our analysis shows that total network costs during economic lifetime are lowest for a point-to-point duplex POF topology.
In-building networks delivering broadband wired and wireless services can be realized cost-effectively with duplex plastic optical fibre, particularly when sharing ducts of electrical power cabling. Point-to-point architectures are well-suited for residential buildings, and bus or star-bus ones for larger buildings.
Optical fiber in-building networks carrying wired and wireless services can outperform CAT-5E networks regarding versatility and installation costs. POF-based point-to-point architectures are optimum for small buildings, and (optically routed) SMF-based bus architectures for larger buildings.
By deploying optical fiber, versatile in-building networks which integrate wired and wireless services can be realized. Advanced signal modulation techniques enable high-capacity services over multimode fiber, and dynamic wavelength routing can improve the system's efficiency.
