Abstract
A general description of code division multiple access (CDMA) is presented. This overview of CDMA highlights the potential for increasing capacity in future cellular communications. The author describes the mobile radio environment and its impact on narrowband and wideband propagation. The advantage of having CDMA in cellular systems is discussed, and the concept of radio capacity in cellular CDMA is introduced. The power control schemes in CDMA are analyzed in detail
