Abstract

A statistical model of the downlink interference for the analytical performance evaluation of code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems is proposed. Based on Wilkinson´s approximation, the statistical model of the relative other cell interference is developed in closed form. The best base station (BS) selection in the shadowed environment with a correlation is taken into consideration. We show that interference statistics obtained by the proposed analytical model agree with simulation results. It is also shown that the proposed analytical model can replace Monte Carlo simulation in outage analysis.
