Method and system for simulating wireless networks

One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that when executed is operable to:

• select a first cell for simulation, the first cell representing a first access station comprising a first interface configured to communicate wirelessly with at least one endpoint within the first cell;
• determine a first cell transmission repetition pattern comprising a first plurality of cells surrounding the first cell, each cell of the first plurality of cells comprising an access station;
• simulate, for each cell of the first plurality of cells, at least one wireless parameter associated with at least one wireless signal;
• determine a second cell transmission repetition pattern comprising a second plurality of cells surrounding the first cell transmission repetition pattern, each cell of the second plurality of cells comprising a copy of a simulation result of a corresponding cell of the first plurality of cells;
• and
• simulate, for the first cell, at least one wireless parameter associated with at least one wireless connection, the simulation based on the simulation results of the first plurality of cells and the copied simulation results of the second plurality of cells.

A system, comprising:

• a processor configured to select a first cell for simulation, the first cell representing a first access station comprising a first interface configured to communicate wirelessly with at least one endpoint within the first cell;
• and
• a storage device coupled to the processor and configured to store a first cell transmission repetition pattern comprising a first plurality of cells surrounding the first cell, each cell of the first plurality of cells comprising an access station;
• wherein:
• the processor further configured to simulate, for each cell of the first plurality of cells, at least one wireless parameter associated with at least one wireless signal;
• the storage device further configured to store a second cell transmission repetition pattern comprising a second plurality of cells surrounding the first cell transmission repetition pattern, each cell of the second plurality of cells comprising a copy of a simulation result of a corresponding cell of the first plurality of cells;
• and
• the processor is further configured to simulate, for the first cell, at least one wireless parameter associated with at least one wireless connection, the simulation based on the simulation results of the first plurality of cells and the copied simulation results of the second plurality of cells.
