FIELD: information technology. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention provides a network control and management system (NCMS) and at least one base station cluster (BS cluster) having a set of base station entities (100) to which respective permutation zones and radio resources are to be allocated. The network control and management system (NCMS) controls the allocation of permutation zones and radio resources to the base station entities (100) by aligning the permutation zones of different base station entities (100) and by determining the radio resources to be used within each permutation zone. Preferably, the network control and management system (NCMS) issues the base station entities (100) a first message (102) requesting information on the radio resources available including specific information items for each permutation zone. The base station entities (100) return the network control and management system (NCMS) a second message (104) including the information requested in said first message (102), and the network control and management system (NCMS) issues the base station entities (100) a third message (106) including commands to align the permutation zones of different base station entities (100) to determine the radio resources to be used within each permutation zone. ^ EFFECT: avoiding in-channel interference problems among base stations in a base station cluster and interference problems between mobile and base stations among different units of the base stations. ^ 14 cl, 5 dwg |
