WCDMA Uplink Capacity and Interference Statistics of Highways Shaped Microcells with Imperfect Power Control and Finite Transmitted Power

Abstract

The capacity and the interference statistics (mean and variance) of the sectors of a Cigar-, Tee-, and Cross-shaped WCDMA microcells are studied. Models of 5, 7, and 9 microcells are used to analyze the uplink capacity of the cigar-, Tee-, and cross-shaped W-CDMA microcell, respectively. The capacity and the interference statistics of the microcell are studied for different sector range and antenna side lobe levels. It is shown that the highest sector capacity is obtained when the microcell is cigar-shaped. For a cross-shaped microcell, the sector capacity is the lowest. Also it is shown that the uplink sector capacity will be very high if synchronous WCDMA is used in the uplink. To get the quasi maximum capacity, the sector range should be (0.6 -1) km and the side lobe level of the directive antenna used in each sector should be −15 dBc or lower.

Multipath Effect on the WCDMA Uplink Capacity of Highways Cigar-Shaped Microcells with Users within Cars and Buses

“…In [8] which represent one of the newest works in this area, the WCDMA multiservice uplink capacity of highways cigar-shaped microcells has been given assuming simultaneous voice and data services. The WCDMA uplink capacity and interference statistics of highways shaped microcells with imperfect power control and finite transmitted power have been presented in [9].…”
