Cross Line and Column Generation for the Cut Covering Problem in Wireless Networks

Christelle Caillouet
Hervé Rivano

Résumé

In this paper, we address the problem of bandwidth allocation and routing in wireless networks. A first model of this problem is known as the Round Weighting Problem (RWP) in which a weight is assigned to the set of rounds, i.e. a set of pairwise non-interfering links. We present a new formulation that forgets about the routing and concentrate on the capacity available on the network cuts. We use the maximum flow/minimum cut theorem known in graph theory to develop the Cut Covering Problem (CCP) and prove that it computes equivalent optimal round weights than RWP. We develop a primal/dual algorithm combining line and column generation to deal with the exponential number of variables and constraints of CCP.
