METHOD OF MODELING A CDMA CELLULAR TELEPHONE SYSTEM

A computer implemented process which utilizes actual received signal level data gathered from closely spaced locations covering an entire CDMA system to calculate interference levels at each location, determines those base stations which most probably communicate with a mobile unit at each particular location, compiles a list of neighbor base stations for each base station at each location throughout the system, and determines the transmit power necessary for each base station to communicate with a mobile unit at each location, calculates interference levels at each base station, and determines the transmit power necessary for a mobile unit at each location to communicate with each base station which most probably communicates with a mobile unit at that particular location.
