Abstract
The invention relates to a method for allocating frequencies to base stations in a mobile telephone network, especially a method for automatically resetting frequencies already allocated in the case of non-saturated base stations and re-allocating frequencies to said base stations. Firstly, frequencies are allocated to base stations using any known prior art method. In the case where no non-saturated base station is present, a complete frequency plan is obtained. However, if some base stations are not saturated, the inventive method is carried out: the current frequency allocation is reset and a new frequency allocation is carried out automatically. A parameter, the resetting extent parameter, is used to determine to which extent the resetting method is implemented.
