Abstract:
Aspects of optimized grooming of multiplexers of a communication network are presented. In an example method, an optimization value associated with each of a plurality of multiplexer configurations may be determined, wherein each of the plurality of multiplexer configurations includes a proposed assignment of each of a plurality of data channels to one of a plurality of inputs of a plurality of multiplexers. A multiplexer configuration having a highest-ranked optimization value of the plurality of multiplexer configurations may be identified and subsequently used to configure the multiplexers. Other potential aspects of the present disclosure are described in greater detail below.

Claim (Index 16):
The system of  claim 8 , wherein the instructions further cause the system to geographically subdivide a group of service delivery points of the communication network is into multiple subgroups of service delivery points, each service delivery point of the group of service delivery points including one or more multiplexers and one of the multiple subgroups of service delivery points comprises the plurality of multiplexers, wherein geographically subdividing the group of service deliver points includes:\n identifying each service delivery point as a separate cluster; iteratively combining two closest clusters according to geographical distance between clusters until all clusters are combined to create a hierarchical clustering of the service delivery points; and identifying the multiple subgroups of service delivery points based on the hierarchical clustering of the service delivery points.
