Diseño de puntos de acceso para una red WI-FI en áreas de baja cobertura en el campus de la UCSG a través del software Ekahau HeatMapper.

Abstract

The study focuses on enhancing WiFi connectivity in low-coverage areas within UCSG's campus using Ekahau HeatMapper software. After identifying problematic zones, effective solutions were designed, resulting in significant network improvements. Specific objectives, such as strategically locating access points, were successfully addressed, supported by a detailed survey conducted with Ekahau HeatMapper to understand user needs. Furthermore, a comprehensive analysis of technical, economic, and legal feasibility was conducted to ensure long-term project viability. In summary, this study provides an effective solution for low-coverage and performance issues in UCSG's WiFi network. Implementing optimized access points lays the groundwork for a more efficient and adaptable infrastructure in the future, benefiting the university community by enhancing their connectivity experience.
