Abstract

CDMA systems commonly use power control mechanism to reduce the amount of interference between the users. We challenge this common practice by considering noncontinuous transmission and probability control mechanism. We analyze the effect of the transmission probability on the average signal-to-noise plus interference ratio (SIR), and give a sufficient condition for CDMA systems in which probability control (and not power control) is the optimal method for balancing users´ interference. We also demonstrate this condition on a CDMA system with a single RAKE finger. Results are applicable both for CDMA and for impulse radio (IR) systems
