Summary: A method to generate lower bounds for the channel assignment problem is given. The method is based on the reduction of the channel assignment problem to a problem of covering the demand in a cellular network by preassigned blocks of cells called tiles. This tile cover approach is applied to networks with a cosite constraint and two different constraints between cells. A complete family of lower bounds is obtained, which include a number of new bounds that improve or include almost all known clique bounds. When applied to an example from the literature, the new bounds give better results.
