Jabatan PERHILITAN is Government Agency whereby its objective to protect the

wild life and educate people on conservation of Wild Life in Malaysia. With its plan to

expand their Local Area Network in each branch, Allied Telesis solution is able to cater for

its scalability and future growth of its Local Area Network.

In essence, the solution is very simple: The L2 Gigabit Network Switch is connected

to the router in each of Jabatan Perhilitan branches in each state. This will provide Jabatan

Perhilitan with more usable ports on the Local Area Network. On the current network

layout in the most of the sites the hosts are connected directly to the router whereby the

router supports a limited number of Local Area Network ports. Adding a L2 Gigabit

Network switch to the network for its Local Area Network Expansion will provide Jabatan

Perhilitan with more usable ports in the Local Area Network whereby it is able to cater for

its future growth in the network.

2.2.2.2.1 Access Switch (8000GS/24)

The proposed Access switch is a high performance Gigabit L2 Ethernet

stackable switch. The 8000GS/24 provides high performance Layer 2 switching with 24

ports 10/100/1000 ports with four fixed 1Gbps SFP slots. It has two integrated stacking

connectors which provide a total of 20Gbps stacking bandwidth. It supports industry

standard CLI and Web Interface.

The 8000GS/24 supports VLAN tagging with up to 256 active LANs where

the switch supports Ports-based VLANs and MAC based VLANs. For added security the

switch supports Private VLAN whereby communication between ports in the same VLANs

are isolated and communication of these ports is only forwarded to the uplink ports. To

ensure additional protection in the network the switch is able to control access in the

network with protocols is such as IEEE 802.1x port-based authentication which only allows

known users to connect to the network. Unknown users who physically connect can be

isolated to a guest VLAN to protect the private network data. Access Control Lists can be

configured. To filter traffic coming in or out the switch.

For ease of management, the switch supports SNMP v1, v2 and v3 protocol

whereby it can send SNMP and SYSLOG to the remote Network Monitoring Server or

Syslog Server.

2.2.3 Tender Name : CMC-TM Bario Troposcatter Link System for

Telekom Malaysia (USP Project)

Client : Telekom Malaysia

Authorized Person : Mr. Mohd Hafeez bin Mohd Thani

Ms. Yasmeenyanti bt Baharudin

2.2.3.1 Introduction

CMC Engineering Sdn Bhd and General Dynamics SATCOM Technology are

pleased to present this preliminary proposal for a Troposcatter Communication Link for

the Telekom Malaysia (TM) project (Miri to Bario). CMC Engineering Sdn Bhd and

General Dynamics SATCOM Technology is turnkey provider of products, services, full

communication systems and networks for use in satellite communications and also the

Troposcatter applications. Most of our communication systems and networks are installed

in government and commercial systems worldwide.

The proposed system concept is based upon the SATCOM Technologies TM-20

Troposcatter Modem, which offers the best available performance in data rate, diversity

processing and Bit Error Rate. Complementing the TM-20 Modems have developed a

system concept utilizing Commercial, Off-The-Shelf equipment and maximum discrete

component redundancy , thereby maximizing flexibility, reliability and maintainability.

2.2.3.2 Solution Overview

Troposcatter or tropospheric scatter is a scattering of distant TV and FM radio

stations by the troposphere so that they travel farther than the line of sight. This effect

sometimes allows reception of stations up to a hundred miles away.

The phenomenon has been used to build communication links in a number of parts

of the world. Large billboard antennas focus a high power radio beam at troposphere. It is

a mid-way between the transmitter and receiver. A certain proportion of the signal is

refracted and received at similar antenna at the receiving station.

Troposcatter is an innovative high-speed technology that allows communication via

diffraction or line-of-sight in transportable, self-contained, field-configurable packages.

Troposcatter antenna feed system generates simultaneous dual beams in the elevation plane,

facilitate straight-forward terminal setup and operation with minimal equipment change and

minimum versatility. An auto-acquisition terminal control system provides deploy, acquire,

track and stow functions, as well as supervisory control of RF and base-band component

for streamlined terminal operation.

2.2.3.3 System Configuration

In order to properly develop a troposcatter communication system, it is best to

firstunderstand the goals and requirements needed and to perform a comprehensive link

analysis to define the topographical and atmospheric characteristics of the proposed link.

Basically, the goals expressed for this project reduce to :

• Data rate (throughput capability)

• Terrain and atmosphere characteristics

• Operability

• Reliability

• Maintainability

Constrains are understood to be:

• 4.4-5.0 GHz Tx/Rx frequencies

• Quad diversity (space and frequency) configuration

• High redundancy/protection of keys electronics

• 99.9% availability

• BER of 10-6

• Link availability to follow ITU-R Rec 2557-4

• Total data rate of 16 Mbps

SATCOM technology harmonized these fundamental goals and constrains in

the proposed solution. Dual VertecRSI 4.7-meter prime focus antennas are proposed

to provide the system link. The following table expresses the configuration of the

proposed system. Please also reference Figure depicting the block diagram for each

terminal. It is assumed the end user will provide the structures for mounting the

antennas at both ends of the link.

2.2.3.5 Block Diagram Figure IX presents the proposed terminal block diagram for the Troposcatter link.

As noted previously, maximum use has been made of COTS equipment, with automatic

redundancy at the logical component level. The system is configured as Quad diversity

protected configuration (1:1). Our approach has incorporated 1:5 redundant converter sets

for each pair of TX and RX signal paths. Whilst this approach does add some additional

cost over single thread converter sets, it seems logical to incorporate redundancy here, just

as with the Modems and SSPA’s.

This approach is robust and clean; maximizing system reliability and serviceability,

with readily available ‘standard product’ components. The proposed system makes use of

1:2 SSPA sub-systems with integral switching networks providing automatic switchover in

case of a failed on-line SSPA, as well as manual signal routing to facilitate servicing.

Interfaces to the SSPA assemblies will be compatible with the existing terminal hardware.

Redundant TM-20 Troposcatter Modems are provided by way of two fully complete

“stand-alone” units combined with a Redundancy Control Switch. As described above, this

approach provides maximum dependability and serviceability, as there are no shared

functions between the two modems and individual units can be easily removed for servicing

or replaced by a spare unit. Each modem contains its own power supply and Rubidium

frequency standard. It should be noted that the TM-20 is constructed using the latest FPGA

technology and as such, has a relatively low parts count. As a result, the calculated MTBF

figure is in excess of 200,000 hours and the modem is even less likely to fail than other

system elements. Thus, a reasonable approach to a reduced cost solution would be to utilize

single thread modems rather than 1:1 redundant modems.

The TM-20 modems are proposed with an EIA-530 interface. If a G.703 interface is

desired, conversion between G.703 and EIA-530 is readily accomplished by way of an off-

the-shelf data converter. A Voice Order Wire handset is provided for voice communications

between the terminals and in the redundant modem configuration, switching of the VOW

interface is handled seamlessly in the Redundancy Control Switch. In addition to the VOW

channel, an asynchronous overhead service channel is provided, which also doubles as the

communication link for the Adaptive Power Control function, with the APC data embedded

in the asynchronous channel framing structure.

The TM-20 has an optional IP interface (plug-in) module which really opens up

much more versatile and powerful connectivity through the link. For example, the VOW

function could be easily handled by VOIP phone sets. Also, any number of different IP

devices could be connected to provide virtually any type of transmission from voice to

email to real-time video. The inclusion of IP interface modules for the TM-20’s and the

addition of IP routers are expected to be achievable for reasonable cost in relation for a

dramatic expansion of capability and therefore offered for consideration. A General

Dynamics VertexRSI NetMAC Monitor & Control System is included, with Front End

Processors and terminals at each end of the link.In addition, the NetMAC offers powerful

data logging and report generation capability to provide historical information on link

operation. As is typical for M&C system implementation, the NetMAC will be custom

configured for this application in order to best meet the customer requirements.

Additionally, training may be provided to allow customer representatives to

implement additional and/or modified features as requirements may change over time.

2.2.3.7 Model MRF-1 4.7m Medium Range Fixed Antenna

Fig. XI : Model MRF-1 4.7m Medium Range Fixed Antenna

The VertexRSI Model MRF-1 Medium Range Fixed Troposcatter Antenna

is used for Troposcatter or high-volume microwave application. The MRF-1 has

parabolic reflector with a diameter of 15.4 feet (4.7 meters). The antenna is

comprised of sixteen panels and radials. The assembly is terminated in the center

upon a vertex hub and A-frame that is mounted on the modular steel tower. This

creates a rigid, strong antenna that maintains its structural integrity and electrical

performance over the broad range of specified conditions.

The process of assembly and deployment is engineered for simplicity. The

reflector and feed system are assembled on the ground before being raised for

attachment to the support structure. The feed system is a dual-polarized feed and there are

additional frequency bands available. The reflector pre-fitted with fixture-controlled

attachment points for locating the feed assembly. The position of local point for tie point

can be restored reliably even after numerous installations and removals of the feed system.

This feature also ensures that if desired the operating frequency band of the antenna

system may be shifted by substituting another feed assembly.

The UDgateway® is an all-in-love WOC (Wide Area Optimization Controller)

designed for broadband satellite and WiMAX, to achieve LAN-like performance and

security and to reduce the amount of bandwidth required.

The main idea for this product is using data compression method. Data compression

method is the process of encoding information using fewer bits (or other information

bearing units) than a specific encoding schemes. As with any communication, compressed

data communication only works when both the sender and receiver of the information

understand the encoding scheme. To achieve this condition, both sender and receiver must

use UDgateway®.

2.3.2.2 EZ Blow Overview

Blown Fibre is a technology developed by British Telecom. It utilizes a lightweight

fibre unit and is installed using a flow of compressed air. As such, the force exerted on the

fibre is uniform throughout its length and this force is significantly less than the maximum

force present in optical fibre cable that is pulled. Accordingly, significant reinforcement of

the fibre is not required, making the fibre lighter and faster to deploy. This opens up a new

market for point-to-point fibre connectivity, rapid deployment opportunities and reduced

investment requirements for the same technology.

2.3.2.3 Direct Installation (DI) Into Duct

The 'basic' FibreFlow™ tube assembly has a wrap of soft temper aluminium as a

water barrier. It is soft temper so that under moderate stretching, it will not fracture. The

outer surface of the aluminium is adhesive covered, to bond it to the inside of the sheath.

The sheath is MDPE, 1.6mm nom thick, has good flexibility and moderate

toughness, such that it is ideal for use installed inside a pre-installed duct or subduct. Thus

we have a product with low weight, great flexibility, and low cost. It is in effect, an empty

fiber optic cable.

One advantage is that this product can be installed easily using standard cable

practice, with very low installation force (these lengths can often be pulled in place by

hand, ideal for low-tech countries) and there is no tensile risk to fibers, since they are

installed later.

2.3.2.4 Product Benefits

• EZ blow Fiber units can be blown into EZ Blow micro tubes for out-door

and in-door network including riser and small diameter bend route.

• Future proof and cost effective network by just-in-time fiber deployment.

• Flexible network design and easy customer connection by extremely flexible

tube pathway.

• Quick repair and easy upgrade by simple blowing.

• Reduced splicing and connecting by long installation distance and various

deployment options. (Up to 6km installation without splicing or connecting

is achievable)

CHAPTER 3

DISCUSSION & RECOMMENDATIONS

3.1 Discussion

Over this past 4 months, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge especially in

telecommunication engineering. To be honest, I feel very lucky because CMC

Engineering Sdn Bhd (CMCE) offers a good platform to gained lot of knowledge besides

expose us for a real working life and learned how to communicate and dealing with

vendors. Besides that, I’ve learned that team work is important in order to complete a

project. CMCE has adopted the Malaysian standard MS ISO 9001 : 2000 as the basis for an

effective Quality Management System (QMS). To achieve this certification, CMCE was

emphasizing their staffs to follow the ISO 9001:2000 Certification Quality Manual that had

been given to all staffs. All staffs have to obey and follow the process needed before makes

an execution.

During completing tender process, I faced a lot of obstacles such as compiling the

render documents as the tender requirement, need to submit before the dateline and must

compile and meet standard in company quality manual. More over, I also must cope with

the working environment which is totally different with college study life. Besides that, I

also have to face and dealing with lots of people characteristics.

3.2 Recommendations

I don’t have a recommendation for the host company but a few recommendations

for UniMAP. They are :

1) All schools must upload lists of student when exactly date for the

presentation since not all students having their internship in or near Perlis.

2) For Diploma students, UniMAP should search for suitable place to undergo

their internship since some of the students did not assign to do proper work

as the InTra requirements.

3) CIC should update quickly the exact report format at least one week before

the last date for internship, easy for all students to compile their report

before the presentation date.

4) Fees for Diploma students should include the fee for college residence so

that it won’t burden students to pay when they come back to UniMAP for

presentation.

CHAPTER 4

CONCLUSION As a conclusion, the objectives of this industry training were achieved. I was exposed to

practical skill, teamwork, communication skill and many others. Beside, I knew the

characteristic and behavior of worker in a company and I learned how to manage and speak

with them. They are always following the procedure as stated in ISO 9001:2000

Certification Quality Manual. Besides that CMCE is a company that care in the Quality

Management System and teamwork are the strength of this company. Overall, I can

conclude that, CMCE taught me lots of knowledge, not just for technical skills but also soft

skills such as dealing with vendor, increases my confidence to speak in english and build

teamwork spirit. More over, CMCE also taught me an entrepreneurship skill. Lat but not

list, CMCE is a very suitable place to gained lots of knowledge in telecommunication,

transportation, technology, oil and gas and also petrochemical industry.
