Method of topographically displaying selected information in a cellular communication system
First Claim
1. A method of displaying on a display device selected information of a communication system having a plurality of coverage areas comprising:
- creating a graphical display of the communication system with the plurality of coverage areas indicated by representative polygons;
selecting a communication channel of a plurality of communication channels in the communication system;
identifying coverage areas to which the communication channel is assigned by coloring the representative polygon a first color;
selecting one of the identified coverage areas;
identifying coverage areas having a communication system performance characteristic affected by assignment of the communication channel to the selected one of the coverage areas by coloring the representative polygon a second color.

Abstract
A method is provided of topographically displaying selected information of a plurality of cells within a cellular communication system through a display device. The method includes the steps of accessing the selected information from an information database and correlating the selected information to respective cells of the plurality of cells. The method further includes the step of creating a topographical display of the plurality of cells of the cellular system through the use of representative polygons, with each polygon representing a service coverage area of a cell of the plurality of cells and displaying the selected information as visually variable values within the representative polygons of the topographical display.
