Abstract

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of WMN-GA system for node placement problem in WMNs. For evaluation, we consider Weibull Distribution of mesh clients and different selection and mutation operators. The population size is considered 64 and the number of generation 200. For evaluation, we consider the giant component and the number of covered users metrics. The simulation results show that the WMN-GA system performs better for Single Mutation and Linear Ranking.
