Abstract
The cellular network is best utilized when providing maximum teletraffic capacity. The reverse link and the forward link capacity in a CDMA network are limited by base station resources (e.g. modems/channel elements, transmit power, Walsh codes) and by interference. The CDMA network is not naturally balanced and may be limited by only one of these parameters, thus not maximizing its utilization. The relations between users’ distribution, coverage, orthogonality and diversity, and their impact on the forward link and reverse link capacities and performance are discussed in this chapter.
