摘要:
The present invention is a method and system for managing frequencies allocated to a cell within a cellular network to assign certain ones of those allocated frequencies for use by channel equipment within that cell. The method measures at least one quality metric for each of the allocated frequencies. At least one measured quality metric for the unassigned frequencies are compared against at least one quality metric for the assigned frequencies. An unassigned frequency is swapped for an assigned frequency based upon the comparison step. Additionally, a voting step is used to indicate that either the unassigned frequency or the assigned frequency has a higher signal quality for communication.

The present invention integrates resource allocation between time division duplex (TDD) and frequency division duplex (FDD) in wireless communication systems. A radio network controller (RNC) receives a radio access bearer (RAB) request from a core network or a wireless receive/transmit unit. The RNC utilizes a TDD-FDD selector to assign radio resources in response to the request. The TDD-FDD selector evaluates various parameters regarding the received RAB request and determines whether it is preferable to assign TDD resources or FDD resources and whether such resources are currently available. Once resources are assigned, system conditions are evaluated to determine whether optimizations may be made to a current resource allocation.
