Abstract
The capacity and throughput of an ATM-based CDMA system offering flexible access rates on demand are analysed. Extending the existing analysis of traffic capacity of a power-controlled CDMA cellular system, it is shown that offering multiple access rates may result in higher throughput efficiency. An example given of a satellite system shows that the gain in capacity may be some 10%
