Abstract:In this paper, a new system level approach for modeling wireless channel unreliability in CDMA cellular systems is proposed. The analysis takes into account call connection types (i.e., soft handoff or single base station) and their respective link reliabilities, which according to some measurements in real cellular networks reported in the literature can adequately be modeled by considering a Poisson call interruption process. This is turn results in significant simplifications of system level analysis. Then,… Show more
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.
