Abstract
The demand for cellular service will increase dramatically in the near future. One way of increasing the cellular system capacity is by reducing the cell size. The authors discuss the problems associated with the new microcell environment. The propagation characteristics of the system are discussed and various types of microcell coverages introduced. In order to solve the cell planning problem, the authors introduce a new type of 1-0 array and show how they are used in maximizing the line-of-sight and nonline-of-sight distance between co-channel cells. The properties of the 1-0 array are established and examples of cell planing for various reuse distances are given.Keywords
