This hands-on practical book tackles CDMA (code division multiple access) capacity engineering, which is crucial to ensuring optimal performance of wireless networks. Examining CDMA capacity at all system levels, this book shows network engineers and operators how to quantify systems capacity so they can design resource management and capacity strategies. It analyzes various critical systems conditions, such as system outages, so CDMA capacity can be properly managed. Case studies and detailed operations scenarios provide practical insight for capacity planing and resource allocation to ensure optimal network performance. Because of the key role CDMA plays in current and third generation cellular systems, this book is also an essential reference for ...

Drawing upon his experience in building the first major CDMA network in North America, Samuel Yang explains the essentials of CDMA wireless technology, helping the reader acquire the knowledge needed to engineer and implement an IS-95 based CDMA system. Examining both the theoretical and practical side of CDMA engineering, this guide is designed for practicing RF and system engineers who should find the modular-oriented chapters on spread-spectrum multiple access technique, design and performance engineering, CDMA traffic engineering, and regulatory implications especially useful....
