Abstract

This article considers a problem to choose parameters of a procedure
for changing node roles in a multi-gateway wireless ad hoc network used
in aerospace systems. Mathematical formulation of a mixed-integer
programming (MIP) model to optimize the changing-node-role-procedure
parameters is proposed, where the main attention is focused on
appropriate parameterization in order to make possible including
additional constraints, if necessary. A practical two-stage technique
used by the authors to solve the considered problem is briefly
discussed. On the first stage the branch-and-bound algorithm provided
with cutting plane constraints of some classes is applied to choose
optimal roles of the network nodes. On the second stage, the network
simulator developed by the authors is used to estimate main
characteristics of the resulting network. Workability of the proposed
approach is illustrated by results of computational experiments.
