“…In this type of systems, the network capacity is limited by the uplink since the transmission onto this is asynchronous [4], [5], [6], [7]. Thus, in this work we restrict ourselves to CAC for the uplink of HAP W-CDMA systems, which is common practice for CDMA systems [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16]. The aim of CAC is to decide whether to accept or reject a new call.…”
