Abstract: This work proposes an enhanced Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (enhanced MOGA), which includes non-dominated sorting, crowded distance sorting, binary tournament selection, extended intermediate crossover and non-uniform mutation operators, for optimising mobile base station placement. The performance of the enhanced MOGA and Deb et al.'s NSGA-II are compared by applying these two codes to benchmark problem computations. Moreover, three cases of mobile base station placement, which include homogeneous and heterogeneous transmitters located in the placement regions, are studied by the present enhanced MOGA. The non-dominated solutions are presented in terms of realistic cellular placement with handover constraint in mobile network communications.
