Abstract :
The outage probability as a function of the number of users/MHz/cell is adopted as the performance measure for evaluating the capacity of a time division multiple access (TDMA) based slow frequency hopped cellular system. A Gilbert-Elliott model to arrive at an estimate of system capacity is used. The Gilbert-Elliott model and expressions for codeword outage probability are derived. Results are provided for mobile to base transmission considering voice activity, power control, antenna selection diversity, and channel coding. The analysis presented is general, but results are restricted to a shortened Reed-Solomon code
