Fiber in the home

IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, 1991
Proposals are given for the implementation of fiber optics in the home. Compatibility of existing products in a home with fiber optics are addressed, and ideas are sketched for new products, including switches, remote control devices, and security products. >

Performance within a fiber-to-the-home network

Computer Communication Review, 2014
Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) networks are on the brink of bringing significantly higher capacity to residential users compared to today's commercial residential options. There are several burgeoning FTTH networks that provide capacities of up to 1 Gbps. We have been monitoring one such operational network---the Case Connection Zone---for 23 months. In this

A fiber optic home automation system

IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, 1993
Guidelines have been provided for development of the fiber optic standard by the CEBus (consumer electronics bus), Fiber Optic Working Group. A system is presented which meets those guidelines yet represents a somewhat different approach than was envisioned by the Working Group.

Fiber-to-the-Home: 1977–2007

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2008
Fiber has been envisioned for delivering broadband services to the residential customer for over 30 years, yet it has only recently entered the mainstream. Currently, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) is being installed in many countries at remarkable rates (even though it still constitutes only a fraction of all broadband lines in most countries).

Driving fiber to the home

IEEE Communications Magazine, 2000
BellSouth is currently operating the first ATM passive optical network fiber to the home system in North America. This article describes the architecture, service set, field experiences, next steps, relationships with data-centric core networks, potential FTTH deployment scenarios, and the opportunities and challenges associated with FTTH.

Fiber to the Home

LEOS 2007 - IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society Annual Meeting Conference Proceedings, 2007
We review major FTTH technologies of TDM-PON and WDM-PON. We also discuss evolution to next generation access networks.

Si Photonics and Fiber to the Home

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2009
This paper describes Si photonics and the key application to fiber-to-the-home (FTTH). Mass production in terms of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology is a prerequisite for Si photonics to provide a cost-effective solution, and FTTH should meet this requirement.

The economics of fiber to the home revisited

Bell Labs Technical Journal, 2003
In this paper, we examine broadband access networks based on very high bandwidth digital subscriber line (VDSL), passive optical network (PON), and active optical network (AON) technologies, and discuss the cost and performance tradeoffs of these technologies as a function of the critical network parameters (e.g., dedicated user bandwidth, population ...

A view of fiber to the home economics

IEEE Communications Magazine, 2004
Fiber to the home in the U.S. market has not been deployed as rapidly as many had hoped or predicted. We examine some of the historical, competitive, and economic reasons for this. We argue that, from a competitive service perspective, it may be difficult to construct compelling business cases for large-scale deployment without either a technical need ...

Fiber to and in the home

11th International Conference on Integrated Optics and Optical Fibre Communications. 23rd European Conference on Optical Communications IOOC-ECOC97, 1997
FTTH (fibre-to-the-home) regains importance due to the growing need for full-service networks combined with several important cost factors, all of which make FTTH attractive now for certain applications. Inside homes, fiber also appears to have near-term possibilities for high-speed networking.
