Title
WCDMA multi-service uplink capacity of highways cross-shaped microcells
Abstract
The multi-service, uplink capacity and the interference (intracellular and intercellular) statistics (mean and variance) of the sectors of the cross-shaped wide-band code-division multiple access (WCDMA) microcell are studied using a model of nine highway microcells in rural zone. The two-slope propagation loss model with lognormal shadowing is used in the analysis. The capacity and the interference statistics of the microcell are studied for different sector range, antenna side lobe levels and different standard deviation of the power control (PC) error. It is shown that, reducing the antenna side lobe level increases the sector capacity. Also, it is shown that the sector range to get the quasi-maximum sector capacity is on the order of 600-1200 m.
