Broadband services are driving much of the Telecom Network infrastructure spending and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. The current access network is no more able to cope with the ever-growing consumer demand for bandwidth. A successful strategy requires that the carrier select a flexible multi-service access architecture capable of supporting ubiquitous broadband access and fulfill customers needs. This architecture allows carriers to migrate their existing access networks to a Next Generation Access Network (NGAN) in order to reduce the total cost of ownership and provides faster broadband than currently available. This transformation ensures the delivery of multi- services with at least 20 Mb/s per user and prepares the ground for Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) to provide a seamless communication services regardless of underlying access technologies. In this paper, we present an evolutionary solution architecture towards NGAN, and the network requirements for that.
