Abstract

Co-channel interference has a very strong impact on the performance of cellular mobile radio systems; a performance measure to evaluate its effect is the outage probability. This work presents an analytical general formula for the outage probability evaluation in code division multiple access (CDMA) cellular systems. In particular, both Nakagami and Rician fading along with log-normal shadowing have been included in the signal propagation model. In addition, the discontinuous transmission strategy is taken into account. The results can be applied also to multi-carrier CDMA systems as well as to packet radio networks
