ITS Campus, ITS News – As time goes by, internet access has become a person’s basic need in everyday life. To expand internet reach in Indonesia, the Community Service Team (Abmas) Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology (ITS) built an internet network transmitter in Ketuwon Village, Pasuruan, Wednesday (15/11).
The Student Coordinator of the ITS Abmas team, Jona Meivan Frendo Saragih said that currently several areas in Indonesia still do not have good internet access, one of which is Ketuwon Village, Pasuruan Regency. This area becomes one of the zones blind spots internet because the internet signal cannot reach the Bromo mountain area.
Based on this problem, this team implemented an internet network retransmitter or repeaters to expand and strengthen signal connections in the area. Antenna repeaters installed will catch the signal from Base Transceiver Station (BTS) or signal transmitting center. From there, the captured signal will be transmitted back to the antenna omnidirectional which can expand the reach of the internet around.
