Abstract:
A designing method for designing an access communication network with a computer that automatically calculates the structure of the access communication network and deployment positions of facilities thereof at low deployment costs corresponding to design parameter information including geographical information, subscription demand information, facility information, and initial accommodation ratio in a design area, the method comprising the steps of:(a) reading a design file and inputting the existing facility information and the various parameter information; (b) designating and/or canceling a fixed mode to the existing facility information and from the existing facility information; (c) editing and inputting a temporarily fixed mode to an additional facility that has not been designed the fixed mode; (d) assigning a demand to facilities that have been designated the fixed mode and the temporarily fixed mode and calculating the structure of the access communication network and the positions of facilities thereof at low deployment costs that satisfy limited conditions of the various parameter information that has been input at the step (a); and (e) storing the structure of the calculated access communication network and the positions of facilities thereof to the design file.
