Abstract
Systems and methods for determining an assignment of radio resources to antennas are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes obtaining an antenna deployment including antennas and corresponding locations for the antennas; determining a cell assignment for the antennas such that each antenna is assigned to one cell out of one or more cells; and, based on the cell assignment, determining a resource assignment for the antennas such that each antenna is assigned to one radio resource out of one or more radio resources. In this way, some embodiments disclosed herein provide a lightweight and efficient method to design a distributed antenna deployment. In some embodiments, the resulting network is optimized in terms of the total area where a high rank is achieved.
