Abstract

The implementation of Fiber to the Home (FTTH) networks is an effective solution for providing high-quality telecommunication services with stable data speeds. This study was conducted on the FTTH network in Cluster RW 07, Dusun 1, Madegondo, Sukoharjo Regency, Central Java, to evaluate its feasibility based on PT. iForte's standards. These standards specify a receiving power range of -10 dBm to -21 dBm and a total attenuation range of 15 dB to 26 dB. The research process involved observation, optical power data collection, data processing, and analysis using the Power Link Budget parameter. The measurement results showed an improvement in network quality after optimization. The uplink and downlink attenuation at FAT 1, 6, and 11 experienced significant reductions, with the final attenuation values falling within the specified standard limits. For instance, at FAT 11, the downlink attenuation decreased by 1.10 dBm, representing one of the most significant improvements. These findings demonstrate that the FTTH network in the study area meets the feasibility criteria and delivers performance suitable for supporting user needs.

Abstract

Abstract— The increasing demand for high-speed, reliable internet access in the digital era has led to the decline of conventional copper-based networks and the rise of fiber-optic-based solutions. This study focuses on the design and development of a Fiber To The Home (FTTH) network using Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) technology in Banaran Subdistrict, Sukoharjo Regency, an area with growing economic activity, particularly in the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector. The implementation of GPON is seen as a critical infrastructure enhancement that supports regional development, education, and digital connectivity. The research methodology began with site surveys using Google Earth Pro and QGIS to collect spatial data such as household coordinates and pole locations. This data was then processed using Setics Sttar Planner version 2.3.12, enabling automatic calculation of optimal cable routes, equipment locations, and required component specifications. The resulting FTTH design covers four neighborhood units (RW 1, RW 2, RW 4, and RW 5), serving a total of 630 homepasses. Key components of the network include 1 Optical Line Terminal (OLT), 2 Fiber Distribution Terminals (FDTs), 46 Fiber Access Terminals (FATs), and 125 poles. The power link budget calculation, essential to determining signal feasibility, produced theoretical receive power values between -15.089 dBm and -14.144 dBm. Field implementation and post-deployment measurements were conducted in RW 1 and RW 2 to validate the theoretical model. Adjustments were made due to site constraints, including reductions in splitter and FAT counts, as well as cable length modifications. Measured receive power values ranged from -16.71 dBm to -16.22 dBm, which still fall within acceptable standards defined by PT. iForte Solusi Infotek (between -10 dBm and -21 dBm). The differences between calculated and actual measurements were attributed to splicing quality, variations in cable deployment, and environmental factors. Overall, the study successfully demonstrates the feasibility and efficiency of deploying GPON-based FTTH infrastructure in semi-urban regions like Sukoharjo. The integration of digital tools for planning and field validation ensures optimal network performance, supporting the goal of bridging the digital divide and enhancing socio-economic development in the area.

Abstract

The Fiber To The Building (FTTB) technology uses fiber optic cables for high-speed data transmission in high-rise office buildings. However, connection loss in fiber optic cables, especially during network activation, can significantly affect the overall performance and reliability of the FTTB network. This study investigates the effects of connection loss on total attenuation in FTTB networks before and after activation, using Passive Optical Network (PON) technology. Simulations were performed on three subscriber scenarios with different treatments of drop core cables (no connection, one connection, two connections) and patch cord cables of different lengths (3m, 5m, 10m), each with additional variations in the number of connections. Attenuation measurements were taken before and after network activation, showing that increasing cable length and splices leads to higher attenuation and reduced network performance. For example, customer 1 with no connections had the lowest attenuation before activation of 19.68 dB and after activation of 19.57 dB with signal quality (ping ONU 11 ms, ping OLT 9 ms, and ping Google 31 ms) while customer 3 with the most connections had attenuation values before activation of 20.92 dB and after activation of 20.87 dB with signal quality (ping ONU 29 ms, ping OLT 28 ms, and ping Google 70 ms). This research emphasises the importance of link management and the length of cable used to minimize attenuation and ensure optimal network performance.

Abstract

Fiber optic networks currently have a lot of interest, so a network monitoring system is needed that guarantees quality and speed of repair if mass disruption occurs. in research [1] regarding fiber network damage detection using IoT with the use of a 1:4 splitter and the use of a detector that can work at a wavelength of 650nm so that it can detect damaged cables with output in the software. So in connection with this, the author wants to develop the results of this research by using a 1:8 splitter and carrying out detection using the LDR sensor and NodeMCU ESP32 using IoT (Internet of Things) technology. The ESP32 NodeMCU will receive data in the form of light intensity values ??at each ODC from the LDR sensor. And then sent to a database that is connected directly to the Android application. The cable identification process occurs in three states: normal, warning, and error. The test and analysis results show that the hardware device can work well, with attenuation in the passive splitter cable of 10.28 dB and a light source with a wavelength of 650 nm. Cable detected as damaged is indicated by an output in the software with a delay of 4.56 s.

Abstract

Macrobending is a form of disturbance in Fiber To The Home (FTTH) networks that occurs due to macro-level bending of the cable caused by damage to the fiber optic. Macrobending frequently occurs in FTTH networks within the feeder cables. Feeder cables serve as connectors between the Optical Line Terminal (OLT) and Optical Distribution Cabinet (ODC) in the FTTH system. The occurrence of macrobending in feeder cables affects the quality of the FTTH network. In this study, the impact of macrobending is analyzed based on curvature diameters of 50 cm, 25 cm, and 5 cm on feeder cables before and after FTTH network activation. Before FTTH network activation, the High Super Luminescent Diode (HSL) is used as the input power source, whereas after activation, the input power source comes from the OLT using Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) modules. The attenuation (loss) before activation due to macrobending, with curvature diameters of 50 cm, 25 cm, and 5 cm, is found to be 0.02 dB, 0.05 dB, and 0.26 dB, respectively. After activation, the attenuation with the same curvature diameters is measured as 0.01 dB, 0.02 dB, and 0.20 dB, respectively. It is observed that as the curvature diameter decreases, the attenuation increases. The comparison of attenuation before and after network activation doesn't show a significant difference because the input power doesn't affect macrobending, rather it is influenced by the curvature diameter.

Abstract

The FTTH network is currently a reliable network concept used in an era where very fast access to information is needed as it is today, but several problems arise in the FTTH network, for example, reduced data transmission speed due to losses in the transmission cable connection or drop core. In this study, activation of the FTTH network will be carried out so that it can function for internet data transmission and observations will also be made of the connection losses on the 10-meter dropcore cable with the number of connections respectively, namely no connection, 1 connection, and 2 connections, where each connection obtains connection losses from 0.00 to 0.02 dB which will affect the total attenuation obtained in the activated FTTH network. Standard attenuation for fiber optic network activation starting from OLT to ONT according to IEEE Std 802.3ah states that the permissible attenuation / loss tolerance is between 20-24 to 29 dB. Splicing losses are caused by errors in the process of joining the fiber optic cable cores. The number of connections in a fiber optic cable can affect the attenuation value in the fiber optic cable. The more connections, the higher the attenuation in the fiber optic cable.

Abstract

LoRa (Long Range) is a wireless communication technology that has gained significant attention in the Internet of Things (IoT) due to its wide coverage and low power consumption. However, its performance is often affected by environmental obstacles that cause signal attenuation and interference. In Indonesia, LoRa is regulated to operate in the 920–923 MHz band, whereas many commercial devices are designed for 915 MHz, leading to suboptimal antenna performance. Therefore, this research aims to design and simulate an antenna that can operate effectively across 900–923 MHz, covering both the commonly used 915 MHz band and the regulated 920–923 MHz band in Indonesia. The proposed design is a 1×2 Antipodal Vivaldi Array antenna using an FR-4 substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.3 and thickness of 1.6 mm. The simulation process was conducted using CST Studio Suite 2019, focusing on the optimization of key geometric parameters such as feedline width, inter-element spacing, flare structure, and ground plane. The simulated results show that the antenna achieves a return loss of –19.11 dB at 923 MHz, a bandwidth of 344.4 MHz, and a gain ranging from 5.103 dBi at 900 MHz to 5.162 dBi at 923 MHz. The radiation pattern is directional, which supports long-range communication requirements. These findings demonstrate that the proposed antenna design meets the specifications for LoRa communication and provides a wideband, directional solution that can enhance the reliability of IoT systems.
