User Capacity of DS-CDMA Cellular Communication Systems Over A Nakagami-M Distributed Multi-Path Fading Channel

Abstract

The user capacity of the reverse link of direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) cellular wireless mobile communication systems over Nakagami-m distributed frequency selective multi-path fading channels with respect to both the voice and data communications has been evaluated in this paper. Effect of perfect and imperfect power control on the performance of the system is considered. It is observed that the system performance is quite satisfactory for both the voice communication and data communication.
