Abstract
A method of resource allocation for use in a wireless network is disclosed. A network coloring decision to assign a plurality of resource blocks to a plurality of cells within the wireless network is triggered upon occurrence of a network event. A network coloring is performed by assigning each cell of the plurality of cells a resource block from the plurality of resource blocks. An effect of interference among adjacent cells with a same resource block assignment is reduced as measured by a network performance metric related to a number of resource block assignment conflicts over the plurality of cells.
