Abstract

In a channel assignment system novel methodologies are utilized for managing channel interference in a cellular wireless communications system as a function of a service-quality factor for a communications channel within such a system. Those methodologies and their essential functions include: (1) Mixed Power Control for overcoming interference problems associated with conventional power control methods; (2) Directed Assignment for reducing channel conflicts between neighboring cells in non-congestion conditions; and (3) Mixed Power Control with Directed Assignment for reducing channel interference between neighboring cells.
