Performance Analysis of CDMA WLL Systems with Imperfect Power Control and Imperfect Sectorization

Abstract EN

Wireless local loop (WLL) provides reliable, flexible, and economical access to the local telephone service using radio technology in the place of traditional wireline.

In this paper, an analytical model is derived to evaluate the effect of both imperfect power control and imperfect sectorization on the performance of code division multiple access (CDMA) WLL systems.

The results show that the capacity degradation, due to imperfect power control, is about 25.8% and 11.5% for single cell and multiple cell systems, respectively.

Increasing the overlapping angle from 0° to 5° causes the capacity gain to decrease from 6 to 5.53, while the corresponding sectorization efficiency drops from 100% to 92.3%.
