CDMA power control, interleaving, and coding

Models of power control are developed and analyzed working with other aspects of CDMA (code division multiple access) systems, such as interleaving and coding on the land mobile radio channel. The basic view is that a power control scheme is keeping the received powers at the base station almost equal, and the performance degradation incurred will be quantified if the powers are not exactly equal. The performance implications of control latency and a maximum speech delay constraint is considered. It is shown that power control and interleaving operate, to some degree, in complementary parameter regions.<<ETX>>
