PCS 1900 interference simulation for personal communications services testing, evaluation, and modeling

A generic methodology for personal communications services self-interference modeling is applied to the Global System for Mobile-based PCS 1900. The resulting system-specific model is discussed in detail, and is used to produce output noise and interference waveforms suitable for implementation in a real-time hardware channel simulator, or as a component of a link-level software simulation. Different deployment scenarios are then used to generate example PCS 1900 interference waveforms, along with corresponding statistical analyses of interference waveform properties. The model described in this paper is particularly well-suited for support of efficient PCS system evaluation.
