Node placement for wireless mesh networks: Analysis of WMN-GA system simulation results for different parameters and distributions

作者：

Highlights：

• We address the problem of mesh routers placement in WMNs.

• The problem is formulated as a bi-objective optimization problem.

• It aims to maximize network connectivity and user coverage in WMNs.

• It is an NP-hard problem and is solved by a Genetic Algorithm.

• The WMN-GA system can be used successfully for router placement in WMNs.
