Abstract

Thesis contains description of European Digital Agenda (EDA) guidelines regarding the need for fast and ultra fast internet access. Republic of Slovenia supported those guidelines in document Digital Slovenia 2020 and with that confirmed the intention to fulfill the requirements set by European Commission in EDA. Current state of communication network does not suffice those guidelines. According to Agency for communication networks and services of the Republic of Slovenia (AKOS) copper connections form a majority of current network and internet speed demanded by EDA guidelines can only be achieved on optical network connections. In thesis we take a closer look at a location that does not meet the requirements from EDA guidelines and we choose to implement GPON network as a solution. We estimate network load in the time of network realization and in the future and we describe a solution for building a GPON based Access network.
