TY - BOOK AU - Kennington, Jeff L. TI - Wireless network design : optimization models and solution procedures SN - 9781441961105 U1 - 621.384 PY - 2011/// CY - New York PB - Springer KW - Wireless communication systems N2 - This book surveys 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.
