Abstract

We analyze and simulate the forward link capacity of a CDMA system with mixed multirate sources in a multipath fading channel. The outage probability of the forward link is derived for a CDMA system with mixed multirate sources. The forward link capacity is analyzed in terms of the number of multipath, the number of RAKE fingers in a mobile station, closed loop power control, and impact of soft handoff. The results in this paper can be applied to the overall design of a CDMA system with multimedia services
