Abstract :
Third generation (3G) wireless systems are being developed to increase system capacity and support innovative broadband multimedia services. Wideband CDMA (WCDMA) is one such system where the air interfaces need to support services with different bit-error rates, delay, and rates. We have developed a multi-cell simulation platform implementing user mobility and detailed radio channels to study the impact of mobile users, fading and propagation effects, and other-cell interference on waveform level processing. Our study aims at analyzing and improving algorithms at the link level (interference cancelation) and system level (power control and handoff) for WCDMA systems
