Abstract

We need an efficient channel assignment algorithm for increasing channel re-usability, reducing call-blocking rate and reducing interference in any cellular systems with limited bandwidth and a large number of subscribers. We propose an efficient hybrid genetic algorithm for a fixed channel assignment problem with limited bandwidth constraint. The proposed GA finds a good sequence of codes for a virtual machine that produces channel assignment. Results are given which show that our GA produces far better solutions to several practical problems than existing GAs.
