Coverage in WLAN: Optimization Model and Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
When designing wireless communication systems, it is very important to know the optimum numbers of access points (APs) in order to provide a reliable design. In this paper we describe a mathematical model developed for finding the optimal number and location of APs. A new Global Optimization Algorithm (AGOP) is used to solve the problem. Results obtained demonstrate that the model and software are able to solve optimal coverage problems for design areas with different types of obstacles and number of users.

Outdoor WLAN planning via non-monotone derivative-free optimization: algorithm adaptation and case study
In this paper, we study the application of non-monotone derivative-free optimization algorithms to wireless local area networks (WLAN) planning, which can be modeled as an unconstrained minimization problem. We wish to determine the access point (AP) positions that maximize coverage in order to provide connectivity to static and mobile users. As the objective function of the optimization model ...

متن کاملSpatiotemporal Estimation of PM2.5 Concentration Using Remotely Sensed Data, Machine Learning, and Optimization Algorithms
PM 2.5 (particles <2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter) can be measured by ground station data in urban areas, but the number of these stations and their geographical coverage is limited. Therefore, these data are not adequate for calculating concentrations of Pm2.5 over a large urban area. This study aims to use Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) satellite images and meteorological data from 2014 to 2017 ...
