Automated Antenna Positioning Algorithms for Wireless Fixed-Access Network
This work addresses a real-life problem - obtaining communication links between multiple base station sites, by positioning a minimal set of fixed-access relay antenna sites on a given terrain.
Reducing the number of relay antenna sites is considered critical due to substantial installation and maintenance costs. Despite the significant cost saving by eliminating even a single antenna site, a hardly optimal manual approach is employed due to the computational complexity of the problem.
