Abstract

In open-pit mines, it is very important to ensure network coverage for equipment in operation, which is located in large areas. It should be noted that some of this equipment, such as trucks and drills, is autonomous; therefore, access to the network is essential. This work presents a mathematical model for solving it based on the p-median problem. The objective is to determine the location of the routers, minimizing the number of routers and the sum of the distances between the operating points and the installed routers. We use real data from the Fábrica Nova mine in Brazil to validate the mathematical model. The scenarios represent the mining planning for 2023, 2024, and 2025. The results showed that the proposed model found the optimal router location in a few seconds, providing more efficient coverage for mining equipment using fewer routers.
