Figure 3

Locations of POIs and ANs in the 2D field example via the proposed framework: (a) optimization with m, (b) optimization with m after five iterations through recursive placement, and (c) optimization with  m. Crosses and dash circles denote ANs and service coverage of ANs. Circles, squares, and diamonds denote POIs with 25, 40, and 55 consumed utilities, respectively.
