Abstract

This article estimates the reverse link capacity of an SIR-based power-controlled code-division multiple access system in a multiple cells environment. The effect of multipath fading on the interference statistics is explicitly accounted for and mobiles are assumed to connect to a base station based on minimum attenuation criterion.
