9.4 Optimisation Objectives and Network Model

The FTTH design problem that we tackle can be described as a kind of a multi-layered hierarchical location and assignment problem. Customer premises are considered as the lower layer while Distribution Point and Fibre Distribution Hub locations are considered as middle and upper layer, respectively. An input network file of the optimisation module can be configured as either a tree or a mesh network. It then determines the best locations of network elements and identifies geographically advantageous tree structure subnetworks to aggregate cables from customers to a POP via DPs and FDHs. A solution for the considered problem should minimise the deployment cost of an FTTH network by optimising the following objectives:Number of PONs required by the total demand of customer connections
