PROCESSING GAIN
Traditional Systems
Performance is measured by signal-to-noise ratio (S/N). The
desired user's signal versus noise.
CDMA Systems
Performance is measured by signal-to-interference ratio
(S/I). The desired user's signal versus interference from
other users signals.

INTERFERENCE AND

Processing gain
Is the ratio of the spread (or RF) bandwidth to the unspread
(or baseband) bandwidth. It is usually expressed in decibels
(dB).
G (processing gain) = F c/Fb = Tb/Tc
Fb =1/Tb (the bit rate of the input signal)
Fc =1/Tc (the chip rate of the spreading code)
Consequently, the greater the process gain, the larger the
allowable interference.

Assume that IS-95 uses a chip rate of 1.2288 Mbps and an input
data rate of 9.6 kbps ( there is another rate for data). The
processing gain (G) would be 128 = 21.07 dB

With an IS-95 CDMA system, there are fewer RF carriers available
than with AMPS.
Two IS-95 carriers use the same amount of spectrum as 100
AMPS channels or can provide up to 8 RF carriers in the AMPS
spectrum allocated for 395 AMPS channels.
Currently, an IS-95 system can support about 14 or 15 users per
RF carrier.
Therefore, in a CDMA system with two carriers, we can have 28 to
30 users in the same spectrum that can handle 100 AMPS users.
So, how can it be that IS-95 can be used to increase the capacity
of a system over AMPS? The secret is in the way the frequencies
are reused.
INTERFERENCE AND
PROCESSING GAIN
Assume that the same seven-cell area is sectorized into 21 sectors.
In an IS-95 CDMA system, the same RF carrier frequency is
allowed to be used in every cell and every sector and thus is said
to have a frequency reuse factor of "1". That is because with
CDMA, the spreading PN codes are used to recover each user's
signal, instead of separate RF channels as with AMPS.
Using today's technology that can support approximately 15 users
per IS-95 CDMA carrier, the seven-cell area has the potential to
accommodate 2,520 active users (multiply 21 sectors by 8 carriers
by 15 users).
Keep in mind that CDMA also uses the PCS spectrum. Therefore,
CDMA systems have the potential to support many thousands of
active users in each seven-cell area.

RAKE RECEPTION
When a mobile unit is standing still, its receiver only receives a signal
strength at that spot, so a constant signal is observed. When the mobile
unit is moving, the fading structure of the wave in the space is received.

POWER CONTROL
Remember at least
a 6 dB signal-tointerference (S/I)
ratio is required to
properly recover
the signal. The S/I
ratio is equivalent
to the signal energy
in each bit (Eb)
over the noise from
other users (N0).
Therefore, in IS-95
systems, the base
stations and
mobiles measure
Eb/N0 to determine
how well the
signals are

3- Access channel Power Control
The process of sending one message on the access
channel and receiving (or failing to receive) an
acknowledgement (ACK) for that message is called
an access attempt. Within an access attempt, access
probes are grouped into access probe sequences of
16 probes each.
The mobile begins by sending the first access probe
at a specified power level relative to the autonomous
power level. It then waits a specific amount of time
for an ACK. If no ACK is received, the mobile waits a
random amount of time then sends the next probe in
the sequence. Each subsequent probe is transmitted
at a higher level than the previous one until the base
station responds with an ACK.
Once the mobile receives an ACK, it remembers
what power level works.
POWER CONTROL
Power Control on the Downlink
Downlink power control attempts to use the minimum power
needed to meet a Frame Error Rate (FER) threshold for
each mobile independently. Note that the base station can
increase the S/N for one mobile by increasing the amplitude
of its modulating signal before combining the signals for all
mobiles.
The mobile unit measures the downlink FER and compares
it with a set threshold. If the FER has exceeded the
threshold, the mobile sends error reports back to the base
station, which may increase the modulation (index) for that
mobile.
The central strategy for downlink power control can be
described as follows. When a frame is received without
error, there is the possibility that it could have been
transmitted successfully at a lower power level. So the
following frame is transmitted at a slightly lower power
level. Thus each successive frame is transmitted a
successively lower power level until, finally, a frame error
occurs. The base station then increases its power
significantly for the next frame, and the "trickle down"
process resumes.
A service provider can set values for U and D as required on
a per base station basis.

Notice that each leg of the
quadrature modulator uses
a different PN code to
spread the incoming signal.
The PN-I(t) and PN-Q(t)
spreading codes used on
the I- and Q-channels have
a low cross-correlation
with each other and are
neither the same code nor
are they orthogonal to each
other.
