Self-deployment, self-configuration: Critical future paradigms for wireless access networks

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

To combat the increasing significance of deployment and configuration costs, the concept of a self-deploying, self-configuring radio access network is discussed. It is proposed that the basic sciences of complex systems (cellular automata, game theory, ecology modeling) can be exploited to design algorithms for such a system. An example, taken from the field of cellular automata, is presented for a network capable of self-adaptation to achieve universal radio coverage in a simplified environment.
