The Constraints

  • Concrete Attenuation

    Philippine schools often use 6-8 inch reinforced concrete walls. Signals from hallway APs degrade by -15dBm to -25dBm passing through, rendering connection unusable inside classrooms.

  • High-Density Roaming

    Inter-class breaks create 'roaming storms' where 2000+ devices simultaneously attempt to re-associate with new Access Points within a 5-minute window.

The Solution Logic

  • Micro-Cell Architecture

    Strategy: Deploy lower-power APs inside the rooms rather than high-power APs in hallways. Result: SNR > 25dB guaranteed.

  • Layer 7 Traffic Shaping

    Strategy: Implement Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) at the gateway level to identify and throttle non-academic applications (e.g., TikTok, Mobile Legends) without affecting Zoom/Google Meet.
