Abstract
Use of direct sequence spread spectrum (DS/SS), in conjunction with TDMA, provides a more cost effective PCS system with better performance in the typical multipath environments encountered, than either CDMA-only or TDMA-only design approaches. This paper describes Omnipoint Corporation´s PCS system design approach which utilizes TDMA with a DS/SS overlay and its cost and performance advantages.
