Design of a metropolitan network based on fiber optic and wireless links to support COVID-19 monitoring

This article aims to design a metropolitan network based on fiber optic and wireless links to support the monitoring of COVID-19 Its main function is to support the monitoring and control of the COVID-19, through intelligent technologies of both software and hardware needed to obtain data in real-time, which facilitates decision making There is currently no platform that allows real-time communication between the entities involved This first phase was developed through a description of the integration of these bodies through the infrastructure of the Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander, Ocana, Colombia Among the results obtained, it is noted that the 28 GHz subcarrier can cross the 25 km fiber link without any problem and the physical topology of the Metropolitan network is designed, which integrates both wireless and wired technology, including their properties and physical, mechanical, and electrical characteristics more representative as distances, speeds, interfaces, coding, and signaling © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd
