Traffic data are a key element for the design and analysis of pavement structures. Automatic vehicle-classification and weigh-in-motion (WIM) data are collected by most state highway agencies for various purposes that include pavement design. Equivalent single-axle loads have had widespread use for pavement design. However, procedures being developed under NCHRP require the use of axle-load spectra. The Long-Term Pavement Performance database contains a wealth of traffic data and was selected to develop traffic defaults in support of NCHRP 1-37A as well as other mechanistic-empirical design procedures. Automated vehicle-classification data were used to develop defaults that account for the distribution of truck volumes by class. Analyses also were conducted to determine direction and lane-distribution factors. WIM data were used to develop defaults to account for the axle-weight distributions and number of axles per vehicle for each truck type. The results of these analyses led to the establishment of traffic defaults for use in mechanistic-empirical design procedures.

Pavements are subjected to repeated traffic and environmental actions. These actions lead to the degradation of pavement and affect the pavement performance. The assessment of pavement performance is important not only for selecting pavement design parameters but also for choosing pavement maintenance and rehabilitation strategies. The traffic loads, the environmental actions, and the properties of pavement material are uncertain. These uncertainties must be taken into account when predicting the pavement performance. Since the traffic and environmental actions vary with time, they should be modeled as stochastic processes. In this study, stochastic models of the net traffic load growth and environmental actions are proposed based on the rectangular pulse processes. These models can be used in conjunction with the Ontario Pavement Analysis of Cost (OPAC) model to predict flexible pavement performance in a probabilistic framework. The prediction of pavement performance for a typical pavement was carried out by using the simple simulation technique and the first-order reliability method. The analysis results suggest that the predicted pavement serviceability measured in terms of the riding comfort index depends on the correlation between traffic effects in each year and the correlation between the environmental actions in each year. The results also suggest that the uncertainty in the riding comfort index is controlled by the uncertainty in traffic and environmental actions in the early stage of service, while it is dominated by the material property of the subgrade in the later stage of service.Key words: deterioration, reliability, pavement, serviceability, stochastic process.

Abstrak— Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pola trafik internet pada beberapa lokasi yang diteliti. Pengamatan dilakukan selama dua belas (12) bulan. Data diolah dengan metode statistika untuk mendapatkan proyeksi pengguna internet dan kebutuhan titik hotspot. Penelitian menghasilkan rekomendasi kebutuhan hotspot dengan mempertimbangkan mobilitas pengguna internet dan countur lokasi. Rekomendasi perangkat berbeda pada tiap lokasi dari sisi geografis dan padatnya area. Line of Sight mempengaruhi kemampuan perangkat dalam memancarkan signal internet.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terjadinya peningkatan pengguna internet pada hari raya umat Islam, Hal ini diduga karena mayoritas masyarakat pada lokasi tersebut muslim. Proyeksi pelanggan di 300 desa didapatkan minimum penetrasi 36,7% dan maksimal 85.2%. Rekomendasi sejumlah 940 Titik hotspot dengan area bandwith secara statik sebesar 3Mbps (aggregate download dan upload).  Penelitian memperhitungkan Link Budget perangkat backhoul tier 3 dengan frekuensi 24Ghz. Setiap  perangkat dapat menangani rata-rata jumlah device yang terkoneksi secara bersama sejumlah > 200 Device teknologi Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11). Beban total trafik  > 1,6 GBPS. Rekomendasi Arsitektur  broadband wireless access Berbasis Hotspot Di Jawa Timur yaitu Surabaya 140 lokasi dengan 400 titik hotspot, Mojokerto sejumlah 70 lokasi dengan 210 titik hotspot. Pandaan sejumlah 80 lokasi dengan 240 titik hotspot Malang  43 lokasi dengan 90 titik hotspot.Kata kunci: Broadband Wireless Access, Hotspot, Line Of SightAbstract— This study aims to determine the pattern of internet traffic in several locations in Jawa Indonesia. Observations were made for twelve (12) months. Data is processed using statistical methods to obtain projections of internet users and hotspot needs. This study produces recommendations for hotspot needs by considering internet user mobility and location contours. Device recommendations vary by location in terms of geography and crowded areas. Line of Sight affects the ability of the device to emit internet signals. The results showed an increase in internet users on Muslim holidays. Projected customers in 300 villages have a minimum penetration of 36.7% and a maximum of 85.2%. The recommended number of 940 hotspots with a static area of 3Mbps (download aggregate and upload). This study takes into account the tier 3 Link Budget backhoul device with a frequency of 24Ghz. Each device can handle the average number of devices that are connected together by> 200 Wi-Fi technology devices (IEEE 802.11). Total traffic load> 1.6 GBPS. Architectural recommendations for broadband wireless access based on hotspots in East Java, Surabaya, 140 locations with 400 hotspots, Mojokerto with 70 locations with 210 hotspots. Pandaan a total of 80 locations with 240 Malang hotspots 43 locations with 90 hotspots Keywords: Broadband Wireless Access, Hotspot, Line Of Sight
