Summary:
ZigBee networks are expected to use various applications such as environmental observation. Nodes that form the ZigBee networks are classified into coordinators, routers, and end devices. The coordinators control the entire networks. The routers forward information measured by the end devices. It is necessary to determine appropriate allocations of the routers to build efficient networks. This paper proposes a method to solve the problem by discrete particle swarm optimization algorithms, and shows the effectiveness of the methods through the numerical experiments.
