Research Problems in Wireless Communication Networks

摘要

The work performed under the aforementioned AFOSR grant includes research on terrestrial wireless access systems. In the digital wireless systems of the near future, a mobile terminal will have control over the transmission power, channel selection and base station assignment. Control algorithms that compute and assign at those quantities in order to increase the efficiency and robustness of the system were studied. The optimal solutions in the two base station case were obtained, while heuristic algorithms for larger systems were proposed and evaluated. It appears that the joint control of power channel and base station assignment can significantly increase the performance of the system.
