A novel Grouping Coral Reefs Optimization algorithm for optimal mobile network deployment problems under electromagnetic pollution and capacity control criteria

作者：

Highlights：

• A new grouping Coral Reefs Optimization algorithm is presented.

• A problem of mobile network deployment with pollution control is tackled.

• A real case-study in Alcalá de Henares (Madrid) is discussed.

• Comparison with state of the art algorithms shows excellent performance of the proposed algorithm.
