The purpose of this paper is to develop a genetic algorithm to determine the optimal locations of base stations and relay stations in Wibro MMR Network. Various issues related to the genetic algorithm such as solution representation, selection method, crossover operator, mutation operator, and a heuristic method for improving the quality of solutions are presented. The computational results are presented for determining optimal parameters for the genetic algorithm, and show the convergence of the genetic algorithm.
