How to Plan MAIO and HSN

For telecom engineers, it is very help full to know about MAIO. Basically there is aset of
frequencies where the channels are hop to avoid interference that set offrequencies is called MA-
LIST. suppose MALIST contained frequencies[A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L].
Then MAIO corresponds the starting point of hopping sequence. Suppose there are four TRx
in one sector. then MAIO will be, for example, 0,2,4.for first TRx for traffic, the MAIO is 0.
means that hopping sequencestarts from first frequency in the MALIST, that is frequency A.
and forMAIO 2 it starts from frequency C and for MAIO 4 it starts fromfrequency E.Also HSN
(hopping sequence number), ranges from 0 to 63 . if we useHSN as, for example 4 it means that
for MAIO 0, the sequence startsfrom frequency A and repeats frequencies in following
manner.For MAIO 0 and HSN 4A,F,K,D,I,B,G,L,E,J,C,H,A,FFor MAIO 2 and HSN
4C,H,A,F,K,D,I,B,G,L,E,J,C,HFor MAIO 4 and HSN 4E,J,C,H,A,F,K,D,I,B,G,L,E,J
 
DEAR SHANKAR,HSN:(Hopping Sequence number)there are 1 to 63 pseudorandom sequences
used for interference reduction.MAIO:(Mobile Allocation Index Ofset)it basically decides the
start of hopping in MA LIST Explanation with the help of Example:let say we are using
frequency planning 1*3 which means one MA list for 3 sectors
