A solution to the Base Station Positioning problem using the Bat Optimization Algorithm

• run g++ make.cpp -o make.exe
• run make.exe
• run bat-bsp.exe

In case files are added, adjust the system command in make.cpp and run the above commands again

Changes to the map should be made in the /src/main.cpp file

• To change the starting map, modify the hexagons added to the region map in the initMap function
• To change the map's size, modify the T_MAX constant
• To change the coverage area of each station, modify the STATION_RADIUS constant
• To change the area of the city's districts, modify the HEXAGON_RADIUS constant
• To change the amount of base stations to be put on the map, modify the STATION_COUNT constant

• The current best result will be printed on screen with its Iteration count, the best bat's solution and its fitness
• Plots will be created in the /plots/ folder
• An example of the initial situation of the given map will be created in /plots/example.txt
• An option to convert the generated .txt plots to .bmp is this site
