Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel analytical framework that is able to capture inter-cell interactions and relevant variations in WCDMA systems using the so-called coupling matrix. Coupling matrix properties related to its spectral radius are analyzed and used to introduce a pertinent indicator which is able to dynamically optimize spectrum efficiency in the context of cognitive networks. Herein, an advanced spectrum management methodology based on coupling matrices is proposed as an illustrative example. Simulation results have shown that the proposed methodology has the capability to adapt to relevant changes in the network and outperforms the frequency allocation in classical hierarchical cell structure planning.
