    1. Research at Bell Labs in the 1960s showed that the minimum acceptable SIR for voice communications is \(17\text{ dB}\). This applies to analog modulated signals, but not digitally modulated signals, where BER is important. Consider a sevencell cluster. If the power falls off as \(1/d^{3}\), where \(d\) is distance, determine the worst possible SIR considering only interference from other radios. The worst situation will be when a mobile handset is at the edge of its cell. To do this you need to estimate the distance from the handset to the other basestations (in neighboring clusters) that are operating at the same power levels. Consider the cells to be hexagons. Develop a symbolic expression for the total interference signal level at the handset, assuming that all basestations are radiating at the same power level, \(P\). You can use approximate distances. For example, each distance can be expressed in terms of integer multiples of cell radii, \(R\). Is the \(17\text{ dB}\) SIR achieved using a \(7\)-cell cluster?
