Abstract

This research evaluates the performance of WiFi networks based on the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) backbone on the Commuter Line (CL) to identify technical issues in providing stable internet services in public transportation with high mobility. The main gap lies in the inability of the existing infrastructure to maintain service continuity when the train is mobile compared to when it is immobile. This research uses an experimental method involving three testing scenarios (using a backbone modem, a signal measurement system, and a smartphone device); the study measures Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. Research results show that throughput passing through the UMTS backbone decreased by 16.8% to the DNS server and 12.68% to detik.com when the commuter line was in motion. Furthermore, packet loss passing through the UMTS backbone increased by 13.6% to the DNS server and 11.2% to detik.com when the commuter line was moving. Then, the round trip time passing through the UMTS backbone increased by 175.50% to the DNS server and 179.25% to detik.com when the commuter line was in motion. These results confirm that high mobility causes significant signal degradation, making current UMTS networks not yet capable of supporting users' broadband needs inside train carriages. The contribution of this research is is recommending a new infrastructure design in the form of optimizing BTS placement or using train repeaters to address interference. Therefore, the conclusion of this research is the need to strengthen transmission in the CL so that the WiFi implementation can achieve the expected reliability standards.

Abstract

This study investigates a practical method to enhance the efficiency of a campus electrical distribution system by optimizing the control and power circuitry of a capacitor bank panel. The research addresses the persistent issue of low power factor and phase imbalance resulting from non-standard wiring configurations in existing installations. Unlike conventional maintenance procedures, the proposed rewiring strategy systematically redesigns the control and power connections to ensure accurate capacitor switching and reactive power compensation in accordance with operational load variations. A diagnostic improvement evaluation framework was employed, involving pre- and post-rewiring measurements of power factor, load current balance, and reactive power under both normal and full-load conditions. The rewiring intervention increased the power factor from 0.97 to 0.99 during normal operation and from 0.70 to 0.95 under full-load simulation (1100 kVA). These improvements corresponded to a measurable reduction in reactive power demand and overall system losses, indicating a substantial gain in energy efficiency and voltage stability. The findings confirm that targeted control circuit reconfiguration can significantly enhance the operational reliability of capacitor bank systems beyond conventional maintenance practices. This work contributes a replicable, technically validated approach for improving power quality in educational and industrial electrical installations.
