A method for allocating network equipment of a cellular communication system to different users assigned to a particular cell thereby enhancing the capacity of the communication system without degrading the quality of communications provided to users of such a system. A user's signal is received and the strength of the signal is determined. The user is assigned to a first type or second type of network equipment based on a comparison the user's signal strength to upper and lower thresholds. The thresholds are defined by the network provider. When the signal strength is below the second threshold, the user is handed off to other network equipment of a neighboring cell. In this manner, the communication system is able to enhance its capacity while maintaining an acceptable quality of communications for its users.
