Abstract

Coverage and Capacity are significant issues in RF planning process for Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS). Radio link is interference limited and interference limited network is capacity limited, On the other hand, noise limited network are considered to be coverage limited. An important step towards mitigating this problem is to reduce inter- ference by controlling channel power and reconfiguring existing Base station(BS),so as to enhance Capacity and Coverage of a network. In this paper we propose an effe-ctive method for optimizing channel power along with maximizing the number of served users and mini- mizing the number of cell sites.
