Combination of neural network based clustering and genetic algorithm for multi-objective 802.11n planning

Wireless local area network (WLAN) planning process is a complicated task and requires constant monitoring as the health of WLAN can be easily interfered by many factors. With 802.11n access points and routers deployment, managing the WLAN can be further complicating the usual tasks for wireless administrator. This paper presents a network plan for IEEE 802.11 based WLAN as pre-deployment plan for the WLAN 802.11n standard devices. The strategy to be used is a combination of neural network based clustering and genetic algorithm for collecting real WLAN data and a pure genetic algorithm for simulation. Computational results show that this hybrid approach provides good enough quality solutions within a reasonable amount of time.
