Abstract

Increasing number of base station sites with continuously growing customers not only lifted up the total cost of the cellular network but it also has radiation hazard issues affecting health. So, it is vital to select most favorable sites in the planning of cellular networks. For this, various site optimization models based on Meta-heuristic approaches (like Genetic Algorithm GA) and Geographical Information system GIS have been presented in this paper. Outcomes of this study will help us in developing a new model for placement of optimal number of base stations in Uttarakhand (study area). Paper concludes with the pros and cons of different models and also outlines all the necessary variables and/or parameters required for the study area.
