Abstract :
In this paper, the effects of soft handoff (HO) on outage and call blocking in cellular CDMA are investigated. The blocking probability of an interference based call admission scheme is analyzed in the presence of soft HO. The influence of soft HO parameters, shadowing correlation and PCE (power control error) on outage and call blocking have been studied.
