Abstract

We present analytical and simulation models that obtain the minimum number of required communication channels for subscriber units and their allocations so as to increase the level of the grade of service (GOS) per user of fixed wireless access communication systems (FWA or WACS). On the basis of the proposed analytical and simulation models, a new methodology of using user radio ports (RPs) is introduced for evaluating the optimal number of RP systems, their allocation policy, and their spatial distribution for different configurations. This methodology enables us to increase the efficiency of FWA services on the basis of GOS maximization
