Abstract
A method is disclosed for dynamically allocating radio frequency channels in a wireless telecommunications system populated by a plurality of contiguous cells, each of which communicates with mobile units over the allocated radio frequency channels. In accordance with the method, an optimum channel is selected for use by a requesting cell from a cost table containing values representing the cost of the requesting cell using one or more candidate channels. The selected channel is allocated to the requesting cell and the cost table is updated to reflect the new channel allocation.
