Abstract :
As the number of mobile users increases, the number of base stations also increases. The base stations form a complex network. The initial complex network is available in the OAM Server. When a new base station enters the complex network, the network topology must be transferred from the OAM Server to the new base station. Since the entropy required for the transmission of the entire complex structure is high, it will be helpful if we divide the complex network into small modules. The entropy can be reduced by dividing the complex network and transmitting the number of nodes, links present within the sub modules. Topology compression is also achieved. The numbers of nodes, links present within the modules and the number of links connecting the sub modules are transmitted from the OAM Server to the new base station. The base station estimates the topology structure from the received information. Initially an ideal condition with the presence and absence of links is considered. The above procedure is extended for the links that are weighted depending on the path loss.
