Modern broadband communications are on the cusp of a transformation, ushered by novel services and augmented by the rise of applications like augmented reality and ultra-HD virtual reality. At the core of this evolution lies the critical role of fixed networks. ETSI's Fifth Generation Fixed Network (F5G) initiative aims to spearhead this change, introducing innovations like the Fibre-to-the-Room (FTTR) concept. Going beyond traditional approaches, FTTR is seen as a key enabler in addressing bottlenecks and interference challenges of WiFi systems. This paper delves into a MEC-enabled FTTR architecture based on dual-stage Passive Optical Networks (PONs), highlighting the potential of FTTR in enabling next-gen services with superior Quality of Service, especially when integrated with edge computing.

Abstract
Modern broadband communications are on the cusp of a transformation, ushered by novel services and augmented by the rise of applications like augmented reality and ultra-HD virtual reality. At the core of this evolution lies the critical role of fixed networks. ETSI's Fifth Generation Fixed Network (F5G) initiative aims to spearhead this change, introducing innovations like the Fibre-to-the-Room (FTTR) concept. Going beyond traditional approaches, FTTR is seen as a key enabler in addressing bottlenecks and interference challenges of WiFi systems. This paper delves into a MEC-enabled FTTR architecture based on dual-stage Passive Optical Networks (PONs), highlighting the potential of FTTR in enabling next-gen services with superior Quality of Service, especially when integrated with edge computing.Pubblicazioni consigliate
