A method of assigning an optimal system control parameter in a wireless communication
system (10) having one or more transceivers (11a)-(11g)
includes applying a reference frame (14) having a plurality of regions (16)-(20)
to the coverage area of the communication system (10). The reference frame
(14) is independent of the locations of the one or more transceivers (11a)-(11g)
and each of the plurality of regions (16)-(20) corresponds to a location
estimate. A code is assigned to each of the plurality of regions (16)-(20),
the code corresponding to a system control parameter optimized for that region.
A mobile station (12) is assigned the code corresponding to where the mobile
station (12) is located.
