Abstract

For the implementation of technical, vocational education and training (TVET), the internet must be accessible and reliable. The two most often used technologies for providing internet access are GSM and Wi-Fi. Signals within the radio frequency (RF) range are sent using these technologies. RF signals experiences penetration loss as they come across non-transparent medium to a free zone, thus, reducing the signal's power. Buildings penetration loss is a well-known subtype of this loss. This paper presents a technique that enhances and improves RF signal reception. For transmission and reception, different kinds of dipole antennae were designed. The transmitted RF signal is captured by the receiving antenna. The system uses an LM386 IC-based amplifier circuit. After being upgraded, the signal is transmitted by the sending antenna and received by the users. The program was evaluated using a software called RF Signal Speed Detector. When compared to the non-enhanced signal, the enhanced RF signal's strength increased over the four indicated location deployments. The percentage improvements are 37.5%, 65.6%, 78.78%, and 164.7%. respectively.
