This booksurveys state-of-the-art optimization modeling for
design, analysis, and management of wireless networks, such as
cellular and wireless local area networks (LANs), and the services
they deliver. The past two decades have seen a tremendous growth in
the deployment and use of wireless networks. The current-generation
wireless systems can provide mobile users with high-speed data
services at rates substantially higher than those of the previous
generation. As a result, the demand for mobile information services
with high reliability, fast response times, and ubiquitous
connectivity continues to increase rapidly. The optimization of
system performance has become critically important both in terms of
practical utility and commercial viability, and presents a rich
area for research.
In the editors' previous work on traditional wired networks, we
have observed that designing low cost, survivable telecommunication
networks involves extremely complicated processes. Commercial
products available to help with this task typically have been based
on simulation and/or proprietary heuristics. As demonstrated in
this book, however, mathematical programming deserves a prominent
place in the designer's toolkit. Convenient modeling languages and
powerful optimization solvers have greatly facilitated the
implementation of mathematical programming theory into the practice
of commercial network design.
These points are equally relevant and applicable in today's
world of wireless network technology and design. But there are new
issues as well: many wireless network design decisions, such as
routing and facility/element location, must be dealt with in
innovative ways that are unique and distinct from wired (fiber
optic) networks. The book specifically treats the recent research
and the use of modeling languages and network optimization
techniques that are playing particularly important and distinctive
roles in the wireless domain. "
