| Abstract: | In future broadband fixed wireless access systems the overall design procedure is critical for their successful commercial deployment as well as their efficient operation and management. The problem addressed in this paper is twofold. Specifically, at a first phase the radio access network planning problem is addressed, which aims at finding the minimum-cost configuration of Access Point Transceivers (APTs) given thegeographical layout of the area to be covered. At the second phase, the interconnecting planning problem is addressed and aims at finding the minimum-cost configuration of the AccessPoint Controllers (APCs) and Inter-Working Units (IWUs) given the Access PointTransceivers layout. Both problems are formally defined, optimally formulated, and solved by computationally efficient heuristics. Finally, results are provided and subsequent conclusions are drawn. |
