Digital Village: Modelling of Public Wireless Internet Development using Supply Chain Structure Approach

Abstract

This study aims to describe the design of rural public wireless internet development based on a supply chain structure approach. Now, many new internet services have sprung up in the private, public, business, education, health, and even governmental sectors until considered as the leading global system. Especially in rural areas, the provision of cable internet networks and cellular internet networks have not been able to reach all rural areas, so a new breakthrough is needed, one of which is a public wireless internet network. This research was conducted with a Design-Based Research approach that combines scientific design methods with the problems that occur for internet development in rural areas of Indonesia. The finding that the development of wireless internet in rural areas can be carried out with the concept of a supply chain structure consisting of suppliers (ISP providers of internet sources), manufacturers (local government or village-owned enterprises managing and transmitting wireless internet to wholesaler), wholesaler (installed 5GHz wireless repeater in people residential areas), retailers (installed 5GHz wireless receiver devices from wholesaler and convert to 2.4GHz wireless transmitters installed in every resident’s house) and customers (each resident’s smartphones or notebooks device connected by wireless).

Innovative Development and Practice of Digital Rural Governance Model Based on Green Ecology

“…The rural governance model is a major topic in the modernization process of rural social governance in China, and it is currently also a hot topic in academic circles. Wijiyanto conducted research on the development and design of public wireless Internet [1]. Banabera G's study focused on analyzing the development of the Gedarana district in Kupang City and proposed digital village governance innovations to improve public services.…”
