Overview of Channel Allocation Algorithms
Mohsen Hayati, Elham Hosseini · DergiPark (Istanbul University) · 2010
Channel allocation is one of many ways to reduce interference in a cellular network. Reduced interference leads to increase in capacity and throughput of the system and hence good channel allocation can lead to more effective use of the spectrum. Apart from reducing interference, channel allocation algorithms can also be used to adapt to traffic changes in a network, and together with reduced interference, the traffic that can be supported is higher. In order to select efficient algorithm for solving channel allocation problem, channel allocation algorithms are introduced and evaluated in this paper.
