Wireless local loops are of interest due to their many advantages over the
wireline systems. However, the bandwidth allocation schemes in wireless loc
al loops are different from that of the cellular networks in some aspects s
ince the terminals are fixed. In this paper, we propose a strategy of bandw
idth allocation for time-division multiple-access based wireless local loop
s, We align the sectors assigned the same channels such that the cochannel
interference is reduced, In the performance evaluation, we demonstrate that
the proposed scheme improves the bandwidth efficiency and increases system
capacity with minimal loss of signal-to-interference ratio.
