✦ Synopsis

Strengthen your knowledge of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology, and build a solid understanding of the technical details and engineering design principles behind the robust new IS-95 digital cellular system standard with this comprehensive reference tool. Based upon the authors' high-impact international training seminars on CDMA system engineering technology, this book helps practicing cellular engineers better understand the technical elements associated with the CDMA system, and how they are applied to the IS-95 standard.Practicing engineers who work with CDMA cellular, PCS, and WLL systems should have this guide close at hand, but even if you're engineering background isn't CDMA-specific, you'll appreciate the book's easy-to-follow, tutorial approach to the technology. Packed with nearly 2,000 equations, and supported by clearly presented, easy-to-understand explanations and examples, it not only shows you how to apply real-world CDMA system design techniques such as cell planning and optimization - it helps you understand the underlying reasons behind particular CDMA system design selections. Specifically, you learn... Proven-under-fire techniques that help you assess system modulation and convolutional codeperformance, and optimize cellular system and Erlang capacity How to design PN code generators for spread-spectrum applications, and how to use masks to control PN code phase How you can use RAKE diversity combining techniques to combat fading How to control CDMA forward link power allocation to help maximize system capacityAn essential reference tool for CDMA system design engineers,service providers consultants, and technical managers, the book also equips R&D professionals with the knowledge they need to develop tools to enhance new or existing CDMA cellular, PCS, and WLL systems.
