Abstract

Location optimization is an important problem in design and usage of telecommunication networks. In different forms it appears in wire-based and in wireless networks, during unicast and multicast usage, in static, as well as in dynamic, networks. We provide an application oriented survey of recent results in location optimization pertaining to telecommunications networks, addressing problems such as converter, splitter, and amplifier placement in wavelength division multiplex (WDM) optical networks, concentrator location in designing access/backbone networks, base station location in Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), and location management in mobile (cellular and ad hoc) networks.
