Estimating the inter cell dependency matrix in a GSM network
Ylva Timner, M. Bergenlid · 2003
Cellular network planning is often based on propagation prediction or manual measurements. Both these methods have disadvantages. An alternative approach is suggested here, where mobile station measurements are utilized to collect system data. This information can be used to tune or re-plan the frequency plan. The data acquisition part of this method is investigated by means of simulations in a realistic simulation environment, using a commercial urban network as a template. The results are compared to true values from the simulator, and high correlation was found.
