Wireless Transceiver Location Optimization
Challenge
Approach
As 5G is deployed across the country, many remote and rural areas still lack basic broadband connectivity, creating a digital divide. Deploying wireless transceivers in these areas can be prohibitively expensive for ISPs, as the low utilization is unlikely to deliver a return on the investment costs of laying fiber and building infrastructure in remote locations. As the government steps in and subsidizes broadband and 5G expansion, telecommunications providers are challenged to find the minimum set of candidate transceiver sites that satisfy coverage goals. Doing so could save millions in infrastructure costs for planned and future wireless networks.
