The capacity and the interference statistics of the sectors of the cigar-shaped W-CDMA microcell are studied. A model of 5 microcells is used to analyze the uplink. The microcells are assumed to exist in rural zones. The capacity and the interference statistics of the microcell are studied for different sector range, different antenna side lobe levels, different values of the break point distance, different values of the propagation parameter s 2 and different standard deviation of the power control error.
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.
