Abstract

In this review, we illustrate the relations between wireless communication and computational geometry. As a concrete example, we consider a fundamental geometric object from each field: SINR diagrams and Voronoi diagrams. We discuss the relations between these representations, which appear in several distinct settings of wireless communication, as well as some algorithmic applications.

Supported in part by the Israel Science Foundation (grant 894/09) and the Israel Ministry of Science and Technology (infrastructures grant).
