We consider multi-period optimal topology planning for microwave-based wireless backhaul networks. We develop an Integer Linear Programing (ILP) optimization model and an efficient heuristic algorithm to tackle the problem. Our studies show that the proposed heuristic approach is efficient to plan for the multi-period microwave wireless backhaul network whose total cost is close to that of the ILP model for different network planning scenarios.
