| Abstract: | The CDMA system promisingly provides more capacity than AMPS. However, providing multichannels for a CDMA system is a requisite to satisfy the demanded capacity. In this paper, five schemes of multichannel assignment are proposed. Based on computer simulation, performance measures such as blocking probabilities, the overall capacity, the capacity of each channel and the number of retrials are obtained. Simulation results indicate that the SIR-based selection scheme is preferable to the other schemes. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
