Abstract
There is provided a method in a controlling node to efficiently assign spectrum to nodes representing wireless base stations which are using/sharing the same block of spectrum. The nodes are organized in a graph where connections between nodes represent potential of interference. The nodes are grouped based on the ability to handle mutual interference. The method includes: determining recursively a plurality of clusters of nodes of increasing sizes; and assigning a bandwidth to nodes in each cluster, based on the size of the cluster. By so doing, the spectrum allocation can be optimized, allowing each node access to an increased amount of spectrum.
