description |
<p>The wireless network design problem (WNDP) considers how best to place a set of
antennas so the antennas can send and receive the maximum possible amount of data subject
to network-performance constraints (e.g., channel-availability constraints). To date,
little research has considered how to choose the network-antenna layout that maximizes
throughput under these conditions. Also, past research has mainly investigated networks
with omnidirectional antennas only, not other types of antennas. A bi-level mixed-integer
program is constructed to solve this problem using a cutting-plane approach. The data
produced from this model demonstrate an extension of the WNDP under more realistic
conditions than have been simulated previously. The questions answered by this research
are as follows: (1) what are the effects on network throughput of utilizing directional
or sectored antennas instead of omnidirectional antennas, and (2) what is the maximum
possible throughput when imposing constraints related to differing interference types and
channel availability?</p> |
