Popis: | The deployment of wireless mesh routers is a crucial task for improving network performance. Therefore, it should be taken seriously to ensure the network accessibility in terms of coverage and connectivity. This placement problem of mesh routers in wireless mesh networks represents an instance of multi-objective optimization problems with huge searching space to explore. In the literature, various optimization algorithms have been applied to find a trade-off between client coverage and network connectivity. To find an optimal mesh router placement, in this paper, we consider Accelerated particle swarm optimizer (APSO) due to its rapid convergence and low computational complexity compared to other population-based algorithms. We have experimentally evaluated it using different generated benchmarks of multiple configurations. The experimental results show that APSO algorithm provides very promising results compared to linearly decreasing weight particle swarm optimizer (LDWPSO). |
