Patent ID: 8711714

Claim:
A method, comprising, by one or more simulation systems: selecting 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; determining 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; simulating, for each cell of the first plurality of cells, at least one wireless parameter associated with at least one wireless signal; determining 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 simulating, 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.
