Abstract
As one of the most efficient access solutions, VDSL technology is becoming a highlight in the next generation network. This paper addresses the topology design of hierarchical Hybrid Fiber-VDSL Access Networks (HFVAN) as a NP-hard problem. An efficient strategy with general binary models is proposed to find a cost-effective and high-reliable network with heuristic algorithms in a short time. An enhanced Discrete Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (DBPSO) is developed and successfully implemented for this network planning problem, both for clustering and positioning. In terms of numerical results, the performance of the enhanced DBPSO is compared with some previous approaches.
