Abstract

The L(h, k)-labeling is an assignment of frequencies to the transmitters/receivers of a multihop radio network such that ‘close’transmitters must have frequencies which differ by at least k, and ‘very close’ transmitters must have frequencies which differ by at least h. The span of an L(h,k)-labeling is the difference between the largest and the smallest assigned frequency. In this paper we study the L(h, k)-labeling problem of cellular graphs, seeking those with minimum span for each value of k and hk.
