  3. 1 Introduction and motivation

  4. Introduction Study areas in Paris Real data A single study area

  5. Introduction Network devices in the plane, Euclidean distance connection Serving zone (two levels of network devices), connection along infrastructure • Place lower level devices (LLDs) in a serving zone • Each LLD is connected to the corresponding higher level device (HLD) • Length distribution LLD → HLD influences costs and technical possibilities LLD HLD Distribution of distances LLD → HLD HLD LLD

  6. IntroductionStochastic Subscriber Line Model • Geometric considerations are essential: The access network … • … runs along the infrastructure • … contributes mainly to total network costs • Telecom providers are confronted with new challenges • Network analysis of competing providers / in different countries • New technologies / data • Need for simple and global modeling tools • Fast comparison of scenarios • Fast technical and cost evaluations • Minimal number of parameters, maximal information about reality • One solution: Stochastic-geometric modeling • Disregard too detailed information for the sake of clarity • Study random objects and their distribution • Take into account the spatial geometric structure of networks

  7. IntroductionSSLM: Main roads Main roads Cells: Subscribers are situated there

  8. IntroductionSSLM: Main roads and side streets Main roads Two level hierarchy of side streets

  9. IntroductionSSLM: Infrastructure, subscriber, serving zones A serving zone HLD

  10. R SR CP CS IntroductionSSLM: Summary • The SSLM consists of 3 parts • Random objects (infrastructure, equipment, topology) • provide a statistically equivalent image of reality • Are defined by few parameters • Allow to study separately the three parts of the network Topology of connections Network equipment (nodes, devices) Geometric Support (infrastructure)

  11. 2 Geometric support: Models and their fitting

  12. Non-iterated tessellations PLT PVT PDT • Stationary non-iterated Poisson tessellations • Characterized by one parameter, called intensity g (measured per unit area) • PLT (Poisson Line Tessellation): g … mean total length of edges • PVT (Poisson Voronoï Tessellation): g … mean total number of cells • PDT (Poisson Delaunay Tessellation): g … mean total number of vertices

  13. Non-iterated tessellationsMean value relationships • Consider facet characteristics • They can be expressed in terms of the intensity g

  14. Nesting of tessellations PLT/PVT PLT/PDT PLT/PLT g0= 0.02 g1= 0.0004 g0= 0.02 g1= 0.0001388 g0= 0.02 g1= 0.04 The mean total length of edges is always

  15. Nesting of tessellationsGeneralizations • Bernoulli thinning: Nesting in cell with probability p • Multi-type nesting: Different nestings in different cells PLT multi-type nesting PLT / PVT with Bernoulli thinning

  16. Nestings of tessellations • Mean value relationships X0 / pX1 with and hence • Immediate application to PVT/(PLT, PVT, PDT), PDT/(PLT, PVT, PDT) and PLT/(PLT, PVT, PDT)

  17. Model fitting Preprocessed data Raw data

  18. Model fitting Realisation of the optimal tessellation: PLT g0 /PLT g1 Preprocessed data • Estimation of characteristics • Choice of a distance function • Class of tessellation models • Minimization of distance function

  19. Model fittingUnbiased Estimation

  20. Model fittingNumerical Minimisation • Solution of minimization problem • analytically for non-iterated models • numerical methods for nested models, e.g. Nelder-Mead algorithm • fast • easy to implement • minimum depends on initial point → random variation • Example: Simulated PLT/PLT model ( )

  21. Model fittingExample • Fitting strategy: Exploit hierarchical data structure • Side streets • Main roads • Monte Carlo test • Null hypothesis H0 : The optimal model is PLT g0= 0.02384 / PLT g1= 0.013906 • Decision: H0is not rejected

  22. 3 Comparison of network trees

  23. Comparison of network trees Geometric support • Two levels of network devices: • Lower level devices (LLD) • Higher level devices (HLD) • Two connection rules: • Euclidean distance • Connection along geometric support
