The rapid growth of wireless telecommunication establishes the need for capacity evolution methods for the cellular systems of today. The authors discuss some important aspects of creating high-capacity cellular networks that operate with a limited amount of frequency spectrum. Macrocells are initially used to build a network with cost-effective wide-area coverage. By decreasing site-to-site distance and tightening frequency reuse, the capacity of the macro network can be increased substantially. Subsequently, micro- and picocells are added, creating a multilayered cellular network. Methods such as power control, efficient frequency allocation, and traffic control between the layers are employed to exploit the full potential of the network
