frequency reuse
Frequency reuse is a technique used in wireless communication to maximize the efficient use of available radio frequencies. It involves dividing a geographic area into smaller cells, each with its own set of frequencies, and then repeating these same frequencies in cells separated by enough distance to avoid interference. This way, the same frequencies can be reused across different locations, allowing more users to connect simultaneously without signal interference. It’s similar to how neighborhoods can share the same phone numbers or addresses without confusion because they’re separated by distance. This approach enhances network capacity and coverage efficiently.
