Project Overview:
The Malaysia Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and Telnet are presently engaged in a Proof of Concept to utilise Tarana's Next Generation Fixed Wireless Access (ngFWA) technology in Pontian and Sedenak, located in the state of Johor, Malaysia.
This pivotal initiative aims to address the essential communication needs and facilitate internet access for underserved communities in both Pontian and Sedenak. Through meticulous planning and deployment, MCMC and Telnet are committed to bridging the digital divide and fostering connectivity in these geographically isolated areas, thereby contributing to the socio-economic development of the region.
Impact:
Tarana has significantly enhanced productivity and community value by delivering faster and more reliable internet access, particularly in areas with poor cellular signals.
This advancement enables teenagers to participate in e-sports training and competitions with high-speed connectivity and low latency, while also empowering individuals to engage in activities such as content creation and seamless live streaming.
The improved network quality supports online learning, remote work, and enhanced social interactions, fostering a happier and more connected community. Results Achieved:
At 1.85 km under Non-Line of Sight (NLOS) conditions with a path loss of 121.25 dB, Tarana achieved download speeds of 639 Mbps, upload speeds of 141 Mbps, and an aggregate throughput of 780 Mbps.
Under extreme NLOS conditions at 2.79 km with a path loss of 144 dB, it achieved download speeds of 129 Mbps, upload speeds of 54 Mbps, and an aggregate throughput of 183 Mbps.
