Frequency Reuse

Radio frequency planning involves dividing available spectrum into channels and assigning them to cells in a way that allows for frequency reuse. This increases total network capacity given limited spectrum. Cellular systems use hexagonal cell geometry and a frequency reuse plan to reuse frequencies in clusters of cells. The reuse factor and cluster size determine the co-channel reuse ratio and overall network capacity. For example, a 7-cell reuse pattern would allow 95 channels per cell from a total of 33 MHz bandwidth allocated for a cellular system.

What makes Cellular Radio work?

Ø Allows frequency reuse


Ø Requires handover from one cell to the next
Ø High Quality services comparable to PSTN.
Ø Other important considerations
Ø Multipath/fading
Ø Other-user interference
Ø Spectral efficiency
Ø Quality of service

Hexagonal Cell Geometry

Interference and Capacity
Ø Co-ch reuse ratio, Q = (D/R)0.5 = (3N)0.5
Ø B spectrum is divided into k ch per Sel, then each
cluster has k.Nchannel. If N cluster is repeated M

An Example
If total of 33 MHz of bandwidth is allocated to a particular FDD
cellular telephone system which uses two 25 KHz simplex

channels to provide full duplex voice and control channels,

compute the number of channels available per cell if a system

uses

× 7 cell reuse
If 1 MHz of allocated spectrum is dedicated to control

channels, determine an equitable distribution of control

channels and voice channels in each cell for each of the two

systems.
Solution
 Total Bandwidth = 33 MHz
 Channel Bandwidth = 25 KHz * 2 simplex
channels = 50 kHz/ duplex channel
 Total available channels = 33,000/50
 For N= 7,
 Total no of channels available per cell
 = 660/ 7= 95
 As 1 MHz spectrum for control channels
implies that there are 1000/50 = 20
control channels out of the 660
channels available. The 660 channels
must be evenly distributed to each cell
within the cluster. The 640 voice
channels will be allocated, since the
control channels are allocated
separately as 1 per cell.
For N=7

 Four cells = 3 control + 92 voice channels


 Two cells = 3 control + 90 voice channels
 One cell = 2 control + 92 voice channels
 In practice each cell = one control channel
and 4 cells = 91 voice, 3 cells = 92 voice
channels
