Tentang WIMAX

PR I mengisyaratkan bahwa Gd H berencana membangun tower antena tertinggi (?) di Semarang, yang ditempatkan di kampus Sekaran. Aku, sambil lalu, menyarankan untuk memperhatikan spec sambil menunggu regulasi tentang Wimax. Tentang Wimax itu sendiri aku dapatkan beberapa kutipan dari website lain ....

Dari www.wimax.com

What is WiMAX?

WiMAX is a wireless digital communications system, also known as IEEE 802.16, that is intended for wireless "metropolitan area networks". WiMAX can provide broadband wireless access (BWA) up to 30 miles (50 km) for fixed stations, and 3 - 10 miles (5 - 15 km) for mobile stations. In contrast, the WiFi/802.11 wireless local area network standard is limited in most cases to only 100 - 300 feet (30 - 100m).

With WiMAX, WiFi-like data rates are easily supported, but the issue of interference is lessened. WiMAX operates on both licensed and non-licensed frequencies, providing a regulated environment and viable economic model for wireless carriers.

WiMAX can be used for wireless networking in much the same way as the more common WiFi protocol. WiMAX is a second-generation protocol that allows for more efficient bandwidth use, interference avoidance, and is intended to allow higher data rates over longer distances.

The IEEE 802.16 standard defines the technical features of the communications protocol. The WiMAX Forum offers a means of testing manufacturer's equipment for compatibility, as well as an industry group dedicated to fostering the development and commercialization of the technology.

WiMax.com provides a focal point for consumers, service providers, manufacturers, analysts, and researchers who are interested in WiMAX technology, services, and products. Soon, WiMAX will be a very well recognized term to describe wireless Internet access throughout the world.

Training/Workshop on ICT for Quality Improvement of Graduate Study

Mei 21st, 2007 by hariwibawanto

Hari ini hari pertama pelaksanaan Training/Workshop on ICT for Quality Improvement of Graduate Study, yang dilaksanakan di Universitas Negeri Makasar tanggal 21-25 Mei 2007. Kali ini kebetulan tidak ada pakar dari luar yang memberi materi ICT for Instruction, dan juga tidak ada peserta dari negara ASEAN.

Semalaman mencoba menghubungi SH sulit terhubungi.
Padahal tiket ada di dia. Maka malem itu aku berupaya keras mencari no tel rumah atau apa saja agar bisa menghubunginya. Aku dapat satu nomor yang aku pikir nomor telp rumah. Eh, bener juga. Jadilah janjian ketemu di bandara jam 08.00.
Menggunakan penerbangan GA540 dari Ygy-Bpp, dan transit di sana 30 menit lalu dilanjutkan dengan penerbangan GA545. Sampai di Makasar jam 13.00 wita. Dari bandara Hasanudin ke UNM ternyata perlu waktu 45 menit (bayar 87000 dengan taksi bandara).
Karena SH harus presentasi jam ke-2 maka kami langsung ke UNM.

Upacara pembukaan di rektorat sudah selesai ketika kami sampai,
maka kami langsung ke ruang sisdiksat (entah apa ini panjangnya). Dan beginilah sekarang, aku ikut dengerin presentasi bu PP karena giliranku sendiri Kamis sore setelah free evening.
Lima hari ke depan, entah apa lagi yang terjadi. Kalau sempat nulis aku kan nulis.

Tentang Training ICT

Mei 25th, 2007 by hariwibawanto

Sebelum lupa, untuk menyiapkan training ICT Advanced (ini sebutan internal untuk Workshop/Training on ICT for Quality improvement of Graduate Study), dilakukan dua kali pertemuan. Pertama di hotel Milenium Sirih Jakarta untuk pemberitahuan awal mengenai jadual, tempat, tim, dan sebagainya. Waktu itu datang pjs dirketenagaan p. spn jnl, bu pp, dan tim (hrw, as, dp, sh, tpdd, aa, bgs, dn, ar). Pertemuan kedua di Hotel Pangrango Bogor, membicarakan materi yang akan disajikan.

Hari ini hari terakhir pelaksanaan training di UNM. Siang nanti acara akan ditutup entah oleh siapa. Setelah itu, kami masih harus rapat evaluasi.

Saya masih harus tinggal sampai jam 5 sore hari Sabtu karena garuda ke yk baru berangkat jam 5 lebih.

Sampai di Yk mungkin kemaleman sehingga musti cari hotel lagi. Alhasil, minggu pagi baru bisa sampai rumah.
