Abstract

See full text

Operations in a cellular system are controlled based on cost values that are generated using neighbor association. In neighbor association, each cost value corresponds to a cost of assigning a candidate channel to a first cell in the cellular system, assuming that the candidate channel is already assigned to a second cell in the cellular system and each cost value is based on an average power attenuation for all of the cells in the cellular system that share the same tier as the second cell with respect to the first cell, wherein the average power attenuation is based on the reuse distances between the first cell and the cells in the same tier. In one embodiment, the cost values are used in a cost-function-based dynamic channel assignment (DCA) algorithm that is, but does not have to be, applied to a list of candidate channels generated using a measurement-based DCA algorithm.
