Welcome to FOAN  International Work Shop on Fiber Optics in Access Networks.

After the successful workshops in Moscow (2010), Budapest (2011), St. Petersburg (2012), Almaty(2013), Brno (2015), Lisbon (2016), Munich (2017) in 2019  we are in Sarajevo.

The primary goal of FOAN 2019 is to bring and present the latest research in the field of Fiber Optics Technologies for Access network. The idea behind the workshop is to create opportunity to learn new things by gathering scientists and experts from academies, industry and operators in this field that will during the workshop share their knowledge, experience, and ideas.

Aproviding an open forum for researchers, engineers, network planners and service providers targeted on newly emerging algorithms, systems, standards, 

FOAN is an annual international workshop providing an open forum for academies, industry and operators in the field of Fiber Optics Technologies for Access network.
