Abstract

This paper proposes a packetized indoor wireless system using direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) protocol. The indoor radio environment is characterized by slow Rayleigh fading with or without lognormal shadowing. The system supports multimedia services with various transmission rates and quality of service (QoS) requirements and allows for seamless interfacing to asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) broadband networks. All packets are transmitted with forward error correction (FEC) using convolutional code for voice packets and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) code for data packets with an automatic retransmission request (ARQ) protocol and for video packets without ARQ. A queueing model is used for servicing data transmission requests. A power control algorithm is proposed for the system, which combines closed-loop power control with channel estimation to give the best performance. The cell capacity of each traffic type and various multimedia traffic configurations in both single-cell and multiple-cell networks are evaluated theoretically under the assumption of perfect power control. The effect of power control imperfection on the capacity using the proposed power control algorithm is investigated by computer simulation.
