Abstract

This activity aims to improve the technical skills of students at SMK Telekomunikasi Telesandi Bekasi, particularly in the transmission department, through training on wire-based antenna design and simulation using MMANA-GAL. The training focuses on understanding basic antenna concepts, modeling processes, simulation, and analysis of antenna performance parameters. The implementation method includes material delivery, antenna simulation practice, and evaluation of simulation results. A simulation-based approach is applied to enable participants to understand the relationship between antenna configuration and radiation characteristics in a more systematic and practical manner. The results of the activity indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding and technical skills, as reflected in their ability to follow antenna simulation stages and the dominance of positive feedback regarding the training materials and implementation. Participant responses show that the training contributes to a better understanding of basic antenna concepts and performance parameters. Overall, this activity provides a positive contribution to supporting the mastery of transmission competencies and enhancing students’ readiness to face developments in telecommunications technology.

Abstract

Efficient and environmentally friendly energy use for base transceiver stations (BTS) in remote areas is essential for telecommunication network development. This study simulates and compares two BTS configurations: a conventional grid-powered system and a hybrid solar-grid system, focusing on energy efficiency, operational cost, and carbon emissions. The simulation was conducted over a one-year operational period using Python-based modeling with realistic input parameters. The results indicate that the hybrid system can supply approximately 74% of the annual energy demand using solar power, achieving 24.4% operational cost savings and reducing carbon emissions by 73% compared to the grid-only system. These findings confirm that the hybrid BTS system is a feasible and sustainable solution to support telecommunication expansion in remote areas with lower cost and environmental impact.

Abstract

The increasing demand for high-speed, low-latency connectivity has driven the rapid deployment of fifth-generation (5G) networks. However, the enhanced performance of 5G systems comes at the cost of higher energy consumption, posing a significant challenge to sustainability goals. This study explores energy-efficient coordination strategies for macro and pico cells to optimize power usage while maintaining network performance. By employing a systematic mapping study (SMS) and a systematic literature review (SLR), we analyze current research trends, challenges, and emerging solutions in energy-efficient 5G network design. Key strategies, including AI-driven resource allocation, dynamic spectrum management, and interference mitigation techniques, are examined to assess their effectiveness in reducing energy consumption. The findings highlight the critical role of intelligent coordination mechanisms in achieving a balance between energy efficiency and service quality. This research contributes to the development of sustainable 5G architectures by identifying optimal methodologies for macro- and pico-cell integration, paving the way for greener and more adaptive next-generation networks.

Abstract

The rapid increase in mobile data consumption has significantly impacted network performance, especially in densely populated urban areas. Long-term evolution (LTE)-Advanced, an enhancement of LTE under 3GPP Release 10, incorporates carrier aggregation (CA) to optimize spectral efficiency and data throughput. This study investigates the effectiveness of intra-band and inter-band CA methods in improving LTE-Advanced network performance in Cirangrang-Cibaduyut Kidul, a high-density urban area in Bandung, Indonesia. Using a combination of drive tests and network simulations in Atoll 3.3.0, Key performance indicators such as reference signal received power (RSRP), signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), and throughput were analyzed. The results indicate that inter-band CA outperforms intra-band aggregation, providing significant improvements in signal quality and data rates. These findings suggest that inter-band CA is a viable solution for optimizing LTE-Advanced networks in urban environments with high traffic demand. This research provides practical recommendations for network operators to enhance service quality efficiently without extensive infrastructure expansion.
