Embodiments are provided for assessing radio resource requirements using virtual bin virtualization. An embodiment method includes receiving a service request from a user equipment (UE) in a geographical bin. Resource requirements are then obtained, from a lookup table (LUT), for a serving radio node and neighbor radio nodes associated with the geographic bin of the UE. The LUT comprises a plurality of entries that map combinations of path losses of wireless links for the serving radio node and neighbor radio nodes to corresponding combinations of resource requirements. The entries of the path losses further include one or more service specific and network node parameters for the serving radio nodes and neighbor radio nodes, which are also mapped to the resource requirements. The obtained resource requirements are then assessed, including deciding whether to serve the UE according to the resource requirements and to resource availability.
