Abstract
Embodiments of the invention include methods, system, and software for physical layer sub-cell identity allocation to select a sub-cell identity vector for a network device in a wireless network. In one embodiment, a method includes selecting a plurality of sub-cell identity vector candidates for the network device from a set of possible sub-cell identity vector candidates, where the selecting removes one or more possible sub-cell identity vector candidates containing a same sub-cell identity for two or more adjacent sectors of the network device. The method further includes determining a plurality of conflict measurements for each of the plurality of sub-cell identity vector candidates. The method continues with deriving a single value from the plurality of conflict measurements for each of the plurality of sub-cell identity vector candidates and selecting the sub-cell identity vector for the network device from the plurality of sub-cell identity vector candidates based on the single value.
