Abstract:

Facility location issue of QoE test points is to accurately reflect the obtained service of all network users with as less test points as possible. We established a robust model of QoE test points location with an interval to indicate the uncertainty of failure possibility based on QoE test points location model of given failure possibility. We then converted it to a mixed integer linear programming model.Test results show that the model is effective for QoE test points location issue with node failure. Case analysis demonstrates that coverage rate and failure number have different impact on location scheme.

Key words: facility location, node failure, robust optimization, quality of experience
