Deploying a Campus Telephony to Enhance Tele-Penetration and Service Provision to aid Mobile Computing for Nigerian Undergraduates

Abstract

The inherent difficulties of IP networks represent a significant turning point in the convergence of information and communication  technologies. Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) emerged with the introduction of 3G and IPtelephony, providing an efficient exchanging  data resources amongst linked users. Supporting hardware, software, and open-source protocols for data, voice, and video  sessions enable the integration of data solutions onto a converged network using IP-telephony's array of multi-service technologies. The  methodology adopted for the study was to concentrate on the technical concerns related to the implementation of an IP network to  improve rural phone service. These included geopolitical, economic and technical issues on implementation. The study result showed that  the network has excellent scalability and speed. Nodes also received request with 80% response rate. This demonstrated equivocall  that it was possible to reach each notes. For the Federal University of Petroleum Resources Effurun, the researchers suggested a VoIP- based telephony system that will aid campus telepenetration, offer users a number of advantages, and fix latency, packet loss, and jitter  problems. Rich media streaming supports blended learning, unified messaging, and other features. It also offers economy, flexibility, mobility, and productivity for users, all of which are advantages. The outcome demonstrates that the framework fixes the packet loss,  jitters, and latency problems. The researchers recommend the following measures to mitigate packet loss and jitters: ICT suite and  Ethernet cabled network should be employed; installation of wireless LANs and cloud storage for data. These will enable staff and  students to access information online.
