Abstract
Wireless networks connect various devices through radio waves in which the network connection may have different structures. Moreover, the network structure is determined based on the placement areas of the network elements, which can be affected by the building and their locations. However, the numerical characteristic which describe the features of the real environment and allow them to be related to the properties of the model are still a challenge that has not been well addressed. To this end, in this paper, we analyze the modeling problems related to the structure of user placement in the access network. Our proposed solution is based on a description of the user environment structure in which cities in the form of buildings and constructions are considered as a typical environment. We propose a new model for addressing the wireless network structure in an efficient manner in which the features of the environment are considered, which are numerically expressed in the form of the Hurst parameter or fractal dimension. In addition, the fractal dimension, geometric fractals, and the characteristics of the user’s distribution territory and urban development are efficiently utilized. Then, we analyze the influence of the fractal properties of the environment on the structure of promising communication networks; in particular, on the structure of the Internet of Things network. Finally, simulation results proved that the proposed model is considered as a beneficial solution for modeling mobile communication and wireless access networks, including fifth-generation networks.

Summary
The evolution of communication networks has demonstrated that the development of the subscriber access level technology can be characterized by the main two points, which are development of new frequency ranges, and access point (base station) approach to the user. These characteristics are of particular importance when using millimeter waves, because any object, including the user himself, may cause the signal to be blocked In this case, ensuring communication stability is accomplished through the use of multiple access points, adaptive antenna pattern control [10], and probably other approaches. Adequate models are required to solve these problems, taking into account the characteristics of users and the environment Motivated by such considerations, in this paper, we propose a new model for addressing the wireless network structure in an efficient manner. The paper considers a general approach to modeling an access network, taking into account the features of the environment, which are numerically expressed through the fractal dimension.
