Abstract :
This paper presents the association of a particle swarm optimization (PSO) optimization tool with a Quasi-3D ray-tracing propagation model for both mono and multi-criterion antenna positioning in indoor environments. The association was applied for a typical wireless indoor system and showed to be an efficient tool to solve typical design antenna positioning problems.
