Evaluación de parámetros de una red óptica para optimizar y mejorar los servicios TRIPLE PLAY mediante ITU G.984 y software de simulación.

Abstract

The objective of this project was to evaluate and simulate an access network with ITU-T G.984 technology for the parish of Atocha - Ficoa in Ambato city, province of Tungurahua. The purpose was to publicize, optimize and take advantage of the benefits of a convergent Triple Play network. It focused on the study of theoretical foundations, characteristics of optical networks, and the OptiSystem simulation program. It started with an investigation of the theoretical bases and features of optical access networks, focusing mainly on the study of Triple Play services. The next stage consisted in conducting a survey of the parish's residents to determine how many of them contracted the Triple Play service and to know if there is potential demand in the residential and commercial sectors. The results obtained were used to estimate and calculate the network design's capacity requirements, enabling it to operate more effectively to serve the demands of both present and potential customers. The technical parameters to be met by the equipment to operate a Fiber to The Home network were determined; in addition, an economic and optical reference budget was prepared for the technological implementation. Using OptiSystem software, a simulation was run to demonstrate how the Backbone or Headend equipment, the ODN network, and the ONTs or CPEs terminal equipment operate at their best. The simulation's calculations and outcomes allowed for a technical proof of the network's viability for deployment in the future.
