            Abstract : 
Algorithms used in the optimization of wireless deployments have computational time as one of their main drawbacks. This computational time is very dependent on the test points established to characterize a deployment scenario. The approach commonly used to define sample points is based on a regular grid, which leads to a remarkable number of sample points if accuracy is required. In this paper, a novel scenario-dependent sampling scheme based on mathematical morphology is presented. Its performance is evaluated and compared to regular sampling, outperforming typical schemes reducing computational time while maintaining very accurate results.
