Interference performance is among the most important issues especially in WCDMA cellular networks planning coverage and capacity. F-factor has been introduced in previous works to model the interference in WCDMA downlink dimensioning process. In this paper, we establish its PDF expression assuming 1 interferer in the server both with and without correlated shadowing effect. Uniform and non-uniform traffic situations are distinguished through the study of both uniform and non-uniform traffic load cases. Then, we generalize the expression for multiple interferers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
