WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, CONTROL APPARATUS, PLACEMENT CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM
In a wireless communication system including one or more base station devices that communicate with one or more terminal devices and a control apparatus, the control apparatus includes: a placement calculation unit that calculates a plurality of placement patterns in which a plurality of base station devices is placed in a target area; and a placement control unit that calculates, for each placement pattern, an evaluation index value based on a communication request of each terminal device, selects a placement pattern having a best evaluation index value, and performs placement control of the base station devices based on the selected placement pattern.
1 . A wireless communication system comprising a plurality of base station devices configured to communicate with a plurality of terminal devices, and a control apparatus, wherein
the control apparatus includes:
a processor; and
a memory storing program instructions that cause the processor to:
calculate a plurality of placement patterns in which the plurality of base station devices is placed in a target area, and
calculate, for each of the plurality of placement patterns, an evaluation index value based on a communication request of each of the plurality of terminal devices, select a placement pattern having a best evaluation index value, and perform placement control of the plurality of base station devices based on the selected placement pattern.
2 . The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein
in the calculation of each of the plurality of placement patterns, the program instructions cause the processor to perform clustering on the plurality of terminal devices, divide the plurality of terminal devices into a plurality of clusters, and place a corresponding base station device among the plurality of base station devices at a position of a center of gravity of each cluster.
3 . The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein
the program instructions cause the processor to use, as the evaluation index value, at least one of a communication request achievement rate, a degree of satisfaction to a user of each of the plurality of terminal devices, or quality of experience (QoE) of the user of each of the plurality of terminal devices the terminal device.
4 . A control apparatus in a wireless communication system including a plurality of base station devices configured to communicate with a plurality of terminal devices, and the control apparatus, the control apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a memory storing program instructions that cause the processor to:
calculate a plurality of placement patterns in which the plurality of base station devices is placed in a target area; and
calculate, for each of the plurality of placement patterns, an evaluation index value based on a communication request of each of the plurality of terminal devices, select a placement pattern having a best evaluation index value, and perform placement control of the plurality of base station devices based on the selected placement pattern.
5 . A placement control method in a wireless communication system including a plurality of base station devices configured to communicate with a plurality of terminal devices, and a control apparatus, the placement control method comprising:
calculating, by the control apparatus, a plurality of placement patterns in which the plurality of base station devices is placed in a target area; and
calculating, by the control apparatus, for each of the plurality of placement patterns, an evaluation index value based on a communication request of each of the plurality of terminal devices, selecting a placement pattern having a best evaluation index value, and performing placement control of the plurality of base station devices based on the selected placement pattern.
6 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program for causing a computer to perform the placement control method according to claim 5 .
