Abstract
A wireless communications system is described which comprises a plurality of base stations, each comprises at least one beam generating means for generating narrow spatial beams for communicating with respective subscriber devices located along a direction to which the respective narrow beam is currently directed. The system's transmission resources are allocated so that a substantial part of the resources allocated to each of the beam generating means is different from a substantial part of transmission resources allocated to any of the angularly adjacent beam generating means at the respective base station and are different from the substantial part of the resources allocated to beam generating means associated with adjacent base stations and directed towards geographical areas located in a proximity to the geographical area towards which the respective narrow beam is directed.
