Abstract

With the growth of the customers and the expansion of the 4G LTE network in the area of Padang City, a PCI (Physical cell identity) modulo interference spot has been detected. PCI modulo interference occurs when an area is covered by two or more cells, which have a strong signal, and these cells have the same PCI modulo value. Based on the measurement results by the driving test method, the network conditions were not optimal because the SINR percentage (Signal to Interference Noise Ratio) in the good category was still low, at 9.47%, and the download throughput in the good category was 18.94%. This indicated that the interference in the area was quite high. Thus, it was necessary to do optimization action. The optimization action was taken by rotating the PCI on the site by considering the modulo value of each site so that the PCI with the same modulo did not merely lead to one location. Besides, action was taken to change the azimuth direction of cells that were too dominant. Based on the optimization process that has been carried out and the driving test activities that have been carried out again, the performance in the existing conditions has increased. The SINR percentage in the good category increased by 10%, so it became 19.47%, and the download throughput in the good category increased by 44.74% and became 63.68%.

Abstract

The fourth-year students of Bachelor of Applied Studies (BAS) Software Engineering Technology Department of Information Technology (IT) Politeknik Negeri Padang (PNP) are required to work on the Final Project Proposal to the Coordinator, to deliver to the expertise group team to assess the eligibility of the topic. The expertise teams consist of the same skill family. The assessment criteria include originality, novelty, target and topic contribution, methodology, and similarity. Therefore, a system to support group decisions is highly needed to get eligibility for the topic. In a pandemic like today, indoor gatherings are severely restricted. The work from home policy also limits the movement of the team to gather together so that the expert team who would judge cannot conduct a meeting to determine the feasibility of the final project topic optimally. The existence of a subjective assessment of a particular topic requires discussion from the team. The simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method was used to rank the final project proposal, and BORDA method was used to Accumulate the assessment score of the expert team. The research revealed the recommendation on students’ final topics. Testing is done by testing the sensitivity of the criteria used in a decision maker's preference. The final result of this research is a recommendation of a final project that is feasible to be implemented by students and recommendation for sensitive assessment criteria. From the ten topics of the final project that were assessed, seven topics could be accepted. The sensitivity test results showed that the weight with criterion 1 and criterion 4 significantly affect the assessment results.
