Abstract :
Municipal Wireless Networks planning is a challenging task, since many optimization choices should be taken into account in large metropolitan areas. This paper formalizes the problem of choosing appropriate access points´ locations and to connect the so built access network to the backbone network. We provide an optimization algorithm able to find a solution with a fast heuristic approach, and apply it to a real-world scenario.
