Abstract :
Analytical expressions for the average bit error rate in the reverse link of a DS-CDMA system with coexisting fast and slow power controlled users are presented. The combined effects of a frequency selective Nakagami fading channel with an arbitrary multipath intensity profile, the power control error and the use of a cell selection process based on a minimum attenuation criterion are considered.
