Abstract
Described herein are a computer-implemented method of determining a power plan/frequency plan combination assigning transmit frequency channels and transmit powers for a plurality of managed access points (APs) of a wireless network. Also described herein is a carrier medium carrying computer readable code configured to cause one or more processors of a processing system to implement the computer implemented method of determining a power plan/frequency plan combination. The method includes determining candidate power plans for the access points, including determining candidate transmit powers for the access points, determining a candidate frequency plan corresponding to each of the determined candidate power plans using a frequency plan determining method to determine a set of candidate power plan/frequency plan combinations, and rating each combination of a candidate power plan and candidate frequency plan according to an evaluation criterion, and selecting a preliminary power plan/frequency plan combination based on the rating. One embodiment of the method further includes determining a final power plan for the preliminary frequency plan of the preliminary power plan/frequency pl…
