Abstract

The channel assignment problem in cellular radio networks is known to belong to the class of NP-complete optimisation problems. In this paper we present a new algorithm to solve the Channel Assignment Problem using Estimation of Distribution Algorithm. The convergence rate of this new method is shown to be very much faster than other methods such as simulated annealing, neural networks and genetic algorithm.
