The CDMA Product-Form Cellular Telecommunication Network

Abstract

This paper proposes queueing network models of cellular mobile communications networks for analyzing the soft capacity peculiar to Code Division Multiple Accesses (CDMA). I formulated these models as Jackson networks with multiple classes and state-dependent transition rates, that is to say, BCMP networks. I derived the product form of equilibrium distribution. As the performance measures, I obtain the explicit probabilities of call losses and handover blockings.
