An Algorithm for Positioning Relays and Point Scatterers in Wireless Systems
Mats Rydström, Erik G. Ström, A. Svensson, Luca Reggiani · IEEE Signal Processing Letters · 2008
In this letter, we discuss the problem of positioning an unknown number of amplify-and-forward relays or point scatterers using a wireless network of wideband transceivers. We propose to model this positioning problem as an assignment problem. In doing so, we avoid the problems associated with an exhaustive gridsearch approach, which has recently been proposed to solve the problem. Numerical simulations show promising results in terms of performance and robustness.
