Optimisation Methods for UMTS Radio Network Planning

Planiranje kapaciteta mobilnih mreža zahtijeva primjenu određenih optimizacijskih metoda. U radu su stoga prikazani neki od pristupa u rješavanju problema optimizacije UMTS pristupne mreže, kao što su Problem prekrivanja skupa (set covering problem) i Problem određivanja lokacije objekata uz pretpostavku da je kapacitet neograničen (uncapacitated facility location problem). Pored toga prikazane su značajke i arhitektura UMTS pristupne mreže u svrhu razumijevanja problema planiranja pristupne mreže. Analizirani su utjecaji različitih parametara na planiranje lokacije i konfiguracije bazne stanice.Mobile network capacity planning requires the application of certain optimization methods. This final work presents some of the approaches to solving the problem of optimizing the UMTS access network, such as the set covering problem and the problem of determining the location of the objects assuming the capacity is uncapacitated. In addition, the features and architecture of the UMTS access network are presented in order to understand the problem of planning the access network. The influence of different parameters on site planning and base station configuration has been analyzed
