dc.description | We introduce the p-Cable Trench problem with Covering. In this problem, p primary servers (e.g., routers) are located and a set of secondary servers (e.g., extended range WiFi antennas) is connected to each of them, to achieve complete demand coverage by a service (e.g., WiFi), at minimum cost. The topology is a forest, in which the primary servers are roots of trees whose leaves and some other nodes are occupied by secondary servers. Some of the nodes of the trees are Steiner

nodes. Both primary and secondary servers provide the service within a coverage radius. The cost is composed by a trench digging cost and a cable cost. Each secondary server requires a single, dedicated cable connecting it to a primary server, and all cables must lie in a trench.
The p-cable trench problem with covering is a generalization of several known problems:
• If the coverage radius is zero and the location of primary and secondary servers is known, the problem becomes the Fixed Charge Network Design Problem.
• If the coverage radius and construction cost are equal to zero and the location of the secondary servers (antennae) is known, the problem becomes the p-median problem.
• If p=1, the location of the antennae is known and the coverage radius is equal to zero, the problem becomes the cable trench problem.
• If the coverage radius is zero and location of the antennae is known, it becomes the p-cable trench problem.
• If p=1 and the cost of distance is zero, it becomes the covering tree problem.
We propose a linear integer optimization model based on multicommodity flow, which we solve using two different Lagrangian relaxations, and a heuristic based on a modified set covering. We solve instances of up to 200 nodes, and also an application for locating WiFi antennas in Viña del Mar, Chile. | |
