This paper investigates the impact of cell partitioning in cell capacity of CDMA-based system. We examine the implementation of four partitions per cell as well as the influence of various height of the base station transceiver antenna to the system. We contemplated the urban area as the target, therefore the COST-231 Walfisch-Ikegami is applied as the propagation model. Calculations on the capacity of cell, the link budget (and MAPL) and the radius of each partition, depending on the height of the base station transceiver antenna, are made. The results show that the capacity increases as the number of partitions increases; the height of the base station transceiver affects the radius of the partitions.
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.
