Orthogonal frequency division multiple-access technique showed a successful utilization of channel features. It implements an orthogonal sub-carrier space to be shared among different users. The management of these sub-carriers in both power and frequency allocation is reflected on the systems performance as better utilization of bandwidth, and hence, better capacity is obtained. Sub-carrier allocation is used to avoid deep fading that might occur at some user's locations but not at other user's locations. In this paper, we devise an algorithm based on probabilistic model for sub-carrier allocation to avoid deep fading in some user's signals. By controlling the sub-carrier allocation for each user, we can create a full rank channel for each user and hence, provide maximum capacity for the system. Simulation results showed that using the devised algorithm will avoid deep fading and utilize the bandwidth up to 40% more than localized allocation strategies.
