Abstract

A telecommunications system and method is disclosed for providing adaptive reservation of radio resources within a Localized Service Area (LSA) in order to achieve more efficient channel utilization of radio resources within the LSA. During a predefined time period, a base station controller (BSC) within the LSA scans for the percentage of radio resources used by public mobile subscriber and LSA mobile subscribers. The BSC compares the scanned percentage of radio resources with a radio resource usage profile stored in the BSC. If the scanned radio resource usage differs from the radio resource usage profile, the BSC sets new radio resource reservations for LSA and public mobile subscribers and updates the radio resource usage profile with the new radio resource reservations. The process is repeated to ensure maximum efficient radio resource usage within the LSA.
