Title
Multipath Effect on the WCDMA Uplink Capacity of Highways Cigar-Shaped Microcells with Users within Cars and Buses
Abstract
In this work, the effect of the multipath on the capacity and the interference statistics of the sectors of the highways cigar-shaped W-CDMA microcells is studied. A model of five microcells is used to analyze the uplink. The capacity and the interference statistics of the microcell are studied for different antenna sidelobe levels and different sector ranges. In the study, imperfect power control and limited transmitted power are assumed. Users are assumed to be within equally spaced buses and cars. The uplink capacity of the sector is studied assuming three types of services, namely, voice, 3G data and 3.75G data (representing the High Speed Uplink Packet Access). It is shown that, the sector uplink capacity depends on the buses and cars density within the sector. The capacity is also given as a function of the number of buses and cars within the sector.
