Abstract
Wireless personal communication requires a provision of integrated services of multimedia traffic, such as voice and data, over the radio link. The multiple access protocols of code-division multiple-access (CDMA) techniques have been widely investigated in the recent literature. This paper presents an innovative multiple access protocol for CDMA-based wireless communication systems by fully utilizing the characteristics of voice and data traffic. In other words, a voice terminal can reserve a spreading code to transmit packets in multiple talk spurts, while a data terminal can transmit packets by either using the unassigned codes or borrowing the codes from the voice terminals during their silent periods. We build mathematical models for voice and data subsystems, respectively. Two performance parameters, the average dropping probability for voice packets and the average transmission delay for data packets, are derived based on the equilibrium point analysis. The effects of the two performance parameters on the system performance are discussed by varying the code reservation intervals of the voice terminals.
