Abstract
The Hutuo, Dutulanaa, and Bulota areas in Gorontalo, represent suburban regions with increasing demand for high-speed triple-play services. This study evaluates the technical feasibility and deployment readiness of Fiber to the Home (FTTH) and Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) technologies in these areas. The assessment is conducted using Link Power Budget analysis for FTTH and SS-SINR evaluation for FWA as the primary performance parameters. The FTTH Link Power Budget calculation yields downstream attenuation values of 23.08 dB (ODC 1) and 22.35 dB (ODC 2), with respective maximum values of 23.99 dB and 23.161 dB well within the acceptable threshold of 28 dB as specified by the ITU-T G.987.2 standard. For 5G NR-based FWA, the SS-RSRP measurements across bandwidths of 30 MHz, 50 MHz, and 80 MHz are -80.46 dBm, -75.14 dBm, and -69.41 dBm, respectively, all of which comply with established Radio Key Performance Indicator (KPI) benchmarks.
