Cell planning based on the WiMax standard for home access: a practical case

The cell planning based on the WiMax standard for home access is addressed in this paper. This cell planning is carried out for a home zone near to Mexico City, whose houses are located at the bottom of a hill. Different considerations are taken into account to determine the number and locations of base stations. From simulations, different coverage cases are obtained and compared each other. Settings for these terminals are varied so that an optimal solution is proposed.
