1. Application of open software and embedded
systems in wireless networks for rural areas by
GTR-PUCP.
CESAR CORDOVA BERNUY
Rural Telecommunications Group
2. Founded in 1998, GTR-PUCP is a group of
professors, professionals, current and graduated
students and researchers dedicated to the
development and promotion of the rural
telecommunications in Latin America.
We are an organization formed and supported
on the Faculty of Sciences and Engineering of
PUCP into the field ofTelecommunications.
3. We are a multidisciplinary team committed to the
research, development, application, analysis, evaluation of
impact and promotion of Information and
CommunicationTechnologies (ICT), which contribute to
the improvement of the standard of living of marginal
communities, which have none or limited access to
communication media, with emphasis in those located in
the rural environment.
4. Our goal is to become one of the leaders in development of
appropriate and innovative low-cost technological solutions in
the field of rural telecommunications and to be recognized
national and internationally as a reference in the areas of
Information and CommunicationsTechnologies for human
development.
5. It was an initiative of GBT-UPM, joined PUCP and
formed a researching laboratory on low cost
rural telecommunications.
There was a technological transference from GTB-
UPM to GTR-PUCP
At the begining GTR-PUCP was supported by:
- Hispanic American Health Link (EHAS)
- Politechnical University of Madrid (UPM)
- NGO Engineering Without Borders (ISF)
- Pontifical Catholic University of Peru (PUCP)
Atthebegining
6. Now we are partners on EHAS Foundation.
We've replicated the experience and also we've
done technological transference to other
institutions like:
- National University San Antonio Abab of Cusco
(UNSAAC) – Peru
- National University of Ica (UNICA) - Peru
- Private Technical University of Loja (UTPL) -
Ecuador
- NGO ITDG through CEDECAP in Cajamarca -
Peru
Our purpose is to develop technical expertise in
different zones of intervention in different levels.
We make training and workshops on wireless
technologies.

appropriate telecommunications
technologies for the rural areas.
Execution of social responsibility
projects in the university;
Exercising and strengthening of
academic teaching, inside and outside
of our university.
Technical training for universities, social
organizations, enterprises, workers and
final users of ICT.

•Wireless router outdoor
•For long distance
•Low energy consumption, under 10
W (can be fed with a solar panel of
50 Wp)
• Low cost.
•Support 802.11abg (1, 2 ó 3
wireless interfaces)
•Asterisk (VoIP server) incorporated
•Interface web for easy basic
configuration
•SNMP
•Dinamic routing (OSPF)
•Security (WPA2-PSK)
•QoS
WiFisystem
19. GTR-PUCP develops its work in areas
located in rural zones with difficult
access and with no energy sources but
the natural ones.
Then, we have developed our own
solutions in order to use our
technologies with the available power
sources.

22. NewlinesofResearch
• 802.11n under test in field
• Wimax technologies
• Remote surveillance systems for
telecommunication infrastructure.
• Fentocells and Low cost GSM mobile telephony:
Open software solutions: Open BTS + GNUradio +
Asterisk, over USRP Hardware
• Wireless Sensor Networks
23. GTR-PUCP works in two programs related to
millennium developments goals.
- EHAS program on e-health
- Willay program on e-government
24. GTR-PUCP is founder and member of the Hispanic-
American Health Network (EHAS for its initials in
Spanish) consortium, conformed by more than 10
universities and institutions in America and Europe.
We develop projects which involve ICT in health
and social development in general.
The main objetive is to employ appropiated
telemedicine systems for rural primary health care
(low cost and adapted to local needs)
25. GTR-PUCP and the NGO ISF ApD in 2006 founded
theWILLAY program. Its objective: Improving the
local democratic governability of public entities such
as municipal governments, education, health and
inclusion of minorities from the rural zones of Peru.
The word “Willay” comes from the family language of
quechua, and means “communicate”.That is the
original purpose of the program.
Associates: ISF, UNSAAC, SP-ITDG and GTR-PUCP
26. We work with government institutions and
beneficiaries to raise awareness about the use of
ICTs
We involve beneficiaries in the process of
designing, implementing, care, maintenance and
repair systems for sustainability.
In ICT’s projects usually
There are local contributions from the
province government, the local councils
and the communities
Training activities in the use and
maintenance of ICT’s
27. The objective of this project was
to improve the health conditions of
the Peruvian population from the
Amazon rainforest in Loreto,
providing electric energy, data and
voice communication to the chosen
health centers in the province of Alto
Amazonas.
AECI
28. processes in 6 health
establishments in Peru (North of
the Province of Alto Amazonas)
and 6 in Colombia (Indigenous
Reserve of Guambia).
In total, 69 EHAS stations
were installed in the
provinces of Alto Amazonas
and Datem del Marañon.
Project which involved the installation of
EHAS Stations, offering remote training
services and improvement of health
29. The objective of this project is to
demonstrate that primary health assistance
services in rural zones of Latin America are
possible through the development of adequate
ICT.
Three pilot projects were implemented in
Peru, Colombia and Cuba, as a result we had a
decreasing number in emergency evacuations
and the improvement of the patient references
system and the epidemiologic surveillance
system.
30. Pilot project which aimed to
evaluate the institutional and technical
viability of telemedicine services such
as stethoscophy, cardiology and
dermatology in the Cuzco network,
which was implemented through the
EHAS-@LIS Project.

malaria in borderline zones of the Andean
region, approved byTheWorld Found
through the subproject “Data and voice
communication networks in health centers
of the border zone Peru-Ecuador”
(RECOVODA), which consists in the
establishment of data and voice
telecommunication networks for 29 stations
in Peru and 12 in Ecuador in the rural zones
and frontiers.
