The throughput and delay performance of adaptive spreading gain uplink packet transmission in real-time and non-real-time data integrated CDMA networks are analysed under AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels. The processing gain for the non-real-time data is adaptively changed according to the total uplink interference level so that a required signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) can be achieved. The optimum values for the required SIR with regard to maximising the throughput are derived as a function of packet length. The optimised adaptive rate system achieves significantly improved throughput compared to the non-adaptive rate system. In addition, the adaptive rate system achieves almost linear increase in packet delay with traffic density, while the packet delay of the non-adaptive rate system shows an abrupt increase as traffic density increases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
