Planning and Design ofGSM/CDMA Networks
• A good geographical coverage is the basisfor providing network services.
•
Careful network planning is thus a priar!aspect of ipleenting GSM/CDMAnetworks
• Network planning is an ongoing process
re"uiring inputs fro a lot of copetenceareas# such as transission# accesss!stes# data counications# obileswitching# intelligent network# siteac"uisition# etc.

Radio Frequenc S!ectrumPlanning
-he general process for Spectru assignentfollows the steps listed below.
+. Preparation of an ordered list of stations to be
assigned01. Assign 2rst fre"uenc! to 2rst station using
database lookup and anal!tical techni"ues toresolve interference probles0
3. Select ne4t station to be assigned using selectionprocedures. -hese include assignent grids#sub'allocation plans etc.0
5. Appl! fre"uenc!'selection ethod includingdatabase look up 0
6. epeat until all fre"uencies are assigned.
