A computer-based system for dynamic assignment of carrier frequencies to
computerized access points of a wireless local area network (WLA) is
connected to the access points via a communication connection. Present
operational values, such as the present number of associated users and
the present number of received faulty and errorless data packets, are
captured from the access points via the communication connection by
autonomous agent modules of the computer-based system. In the
computer-based system, individual weighting factors for the access points
are calculated, based on the captured operational values. Access point
data about the access points, which include present carrier frequencies
and weighting factors, are stored in the computer-based system. Based on
the stored access point data, optimal carrier frequencies, or
respectively radio frequency channels, are determined in the
computer-based system to reduce instances of interference between the
access points, and are set in the access points via the communication
connection. Optimal carrier frequencies, or respectively radio frequency
channels, can thus be determined and set in the access points without
resources of the local mobile radio network having to be used for this
purpose and without changes having to be made at the access points.
