To provide a channel allocation to one or a plurality of cells in a wireless LAN (WLAN) without generating unallowable interference.
The allocation includes a process to divide a temporal term for the allocation into a plurality of frames having an enough short sustained time respectively, and a process to allocate one or a plurality of channels to one or a plurality of WLAN cells based on an allocation vector then during each frame term. The vector makes it sure to minimize a mutual interference by enough isolating each cell for the channel to be allocated from all other cells for the same channel to be allocated. Only the cell for the channel to be allocated is allowed to transmit to a specific frame term. The allocation vector is decided by a system to optimize the performance of the WLAN.
