Abstract

This research aims to design and implement a twin slit rectangular microstrip antenna for 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz dual-band Wi-Fi using CST Studio Suite 2019 software and in antenna measurements using a Vector Network Analyzer. Some of the antenna parameters produced are return loss, bandwidth, VSWR, radiation pattern, and gain. This antenna has an antenna size of 45 x 53 mm. The antenna is designed based on the characteristics of several antenna parameters, namely having a return loss ≤-10 dB gain value ≥1 dB, and VSWR ≤2. The type of substrate used is FR-4 (lossy) with a dielectric constant specification of 4.3, a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms, and a thickness of 1.6 mm. The ground plane material used is copper with a thickness of 0.035 mm. The microstrip antenna parameter optimization results are in the form of a return loss of -13.64 dB with a frequency of 2.4 GHz and -30.40 dB with a frequency of 5.8 GHz, VSWR values of 4.38 with a frequency of 2.4 GHz and 5.45 with a frequency of 5.8 GHz and have unidirectional pola radiation. In comparison, the return loss value of the fabricated antenna is obtained at -4.52 dB at a frequency of 2.5 GHz and -6.32 dB at a frequency of 5.8 GHz. VSWR values of 4.38 at a frequency of 2.4 GHz and 5.45 at a frequency of 5.8 GHz.

Abstract

The implementation of Fiber to the Home (FTTH) networks is an effective solution for providing high-quality telecommunication services with stable data speeds. This study was conducted on the FTTH network in Cluster RW 07, Dusun 1, Madegondo, Sukoharjo Regency, Central Java, to evaluate its feasibility based on PT. iForte's standards. These standards specify a receiving power range of -10 dBm to -21 dBm and a total attenuation range of 15 dB to 26 dB. The research process involved observation, optical power data collection, data processing, and analysis using the Power Link Budget parameter. The measurement results showed an improvement in network quality after optimization. The uplink and downlink attenuation at FAT 1, 6, and 11 experienced significant reductions, with the final attenuation values falling within the specified standard limits. For instance, at FAT 11, the downlink attenuation decreased by 1.10 dBm, representing one of the most significant improvements. These findings demonstrate that the FTTH network in the study area meets the feasibility criteria and delivers performance suitable for supporting user needs.
