Abstract
The use of an antenna array at a base-station for cellular CDMA is
studied. The authors present a performance analysis for a multicell CDMA
network with an antenna array at the base-station for use in both
base-station to mobile (downlink) and mobile to base-station (uplink)
links. They model the effects of path loss, Rayleigh fading, log-normal
shadowing, multiple access interference, and thermal noise, and show
that by using an antenna array at the base-station, both in receive and
transmit, one can increase system capacity several fold. Simulation
results are presented to support the claims
