Evolving greenfield passive optical networks
Evolving greenfield passive optical networks
We investigate applying an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to the design of a passive optical network (PON). We use three techniques to improve the performance. Firstly, to reduce the risk of sub-optimal convergence, we use a novel genetic encoding. Secondly, we combine the EA with a heuristic to guide the optimisation. Thirdly, we investigate various ways of sub-dividing the problem. We briefly present experiments to demonstrate how the EA performs. The results show the strengths and weaknesses of the various techniques we employ.

Abstract
We investigate applying an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to the design of a passive optical network (PON). We use three techniques to improve the performance. Firstly, to reduce the risk of sub-optimal convergence, we use a novel genetic encoding. Secondly, we combine the EA with a heuristic to guide the optimisation. Thirdly, we investigate various ways of sub-dividing the problem. We briefly present experiments to demonstrate how the EA performs. The results show the strengths and weaknesses of the various techniques we employ.
