Abstract :
One advantage of CDMA cellular systems is that they allow mobiles to transmit at any time instant without mutual synchronization. The cost of this flexibility is the tolerance of interference from other users in the same cell. In cellular applications, however, the effects of interference are further compounded by the multipath fading environment, because each interferer can generate several interfering rays. To reduce the effects of these interferences, M-ary signaling can be used together with the diversity antenna combining. A CDMA cellular system is analyzed that utilizes these techniques
