cost-effective alternative to FTTH and FTTB [1] especially in rural areas [2] where FTTC and VDSL cannot always deliver … areas due to difficulties of deployment of fiber in the final meters. FTTdp networks using G.fast have been proposed as a …-economic study is performed to assess the feasibility of a FWA network deployment based on LTE technology in comparison to FTTdp G …

Due to the high costs associated with the deployment of the passive infrastructure of FTTH networks, operators ponder … economic aspects of network sharing in FTTH/PON architectures. The capabilities of present and future versions of PON … architectures and the cost implications of a network sharing model are described. Moreover, the minimum price of the access line …

VDSL and G.fast Vectoring are transmission technologies over copper access line pairs enabling the transmission of … higher bandwidth to the end customers, but harm the infrastructure based competition using physical unbundled copper lines …

Further on, based on coverage data from 2013, we provide an … assessment of how would have NGA coverage looked like if the recently approved regulation for FTTH unbundling would have come …

We analyse the cost effects with a cost model, which …

In this paper a bottom-up cost model is applied to determine the investment and cost of deploying and operating a FTTH … network in Germany on a national level. The monthly cost per subscriber at rising penetration is compared with the Average …
