WLAN is a flexible data communication system implemented as an extension to or as an alternative for, a wired LAN. This paper presents the placement of access points (AP) as a nonlinear optimization problem. The work explores the measured data in terms of signal strength in the indoor WLAN 802.11g at Malviya Bhavan, Boys Hostel Building, Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee, Saharanpur Campus and coverage and location of access points using Qualnet simulation software 5.0 and particle swarm optimization technique.
