2.1 Various Types of Diversities
Inthe CDMAbroadbandmodulation(1.25MHz band), three types of diversities (time, frequency,and space) areused to reduce
serious fading problems generatedfromradio channels inorderto obtain high-qualitycalls.
Timediversitycanbe obtainedthroughtheuse of codeinterleaving anderrorcorrection code whereas frequencydiversitycan
beobtained byspreadingsignal energyto more wider frequencyband. The fadingrelated tonormal frequencycan affect the
normal 200~300kHz among signal bands and accordingly,serious affect canbe avoided. Moreover,space diversity(also called
pathdiversity) can be realizedwith the following three types of methods.
First, it canbe obtained bythe duplication ofcell site receive antenna. Second, it can beobtainedthroughthe use of
multi-signal processing device that receives atransmit signal havingeach different transmission delaytime andthen, combines
them.Third, it can beobtained throughthe multiple cell site connection(SoftHandoff)that connects the mobile station and
more thantwo cell sites at the same time.
2.2 Power Control
TheCDMA system utilizes theforward(from abase station to mobile stations) andbackward(fromthe mobile stationtothe
base station) power control in order toincrease the call processing capacityandobtain high-qualitycalls. Incase theoriginating
signals of mobile stations arereceived bythe cell site intheminimum call qualitylevel (signal to interference) through theuse
oftransmit powercontrol onall the mobile stations, the system capacitycan be maximized.
If thesignal ofmobile stationis received too strong, the performance of thatmobile station is improved. However, because of
this, the interference onother mobile stations usingthe samechannel is increased and accordingly,the call qualityofother
subscribers is reducedunless the maximumaccommodation capacityis reduced.
In the CDMAsystem,forward power control, backwardopenlooppower control, andclosed looppowercontrol methodsare
used.The forwardpower control is carriedoutinthecell site to reduce thetransmit power on mobile stations less affected by
themulti-pathfadingandshadowphenomenonandthe interference of other cell sites when themobile stationis notengaged in
thecall oris relativelynearerto the correspondingcell site. This is also used toprovide additional power to mobile stations
having high call error rates, located inbadreception areas or far awayfrom the cell site.
Thebackwardopen looppower control is carried outinacorrespondingmobile station;themobile stationmeasures power
received from the cell site and then,reverselyincreases/decreases transmit power in order tocompensate channel changes
caused bythe forward link path loss andterraincharacteristics inrelationto the mobile station inthe cell site. Bydoingso,all
the mobile office transmit signals in the cells are received bythe cell site in the same strength.
Moreover, the backwardclosedlooppower control used bythe mobile stationto controlpower withthe commandsissuedout
bythecell site. The cell site receives the signal of eachcorrespondingmobile stationand compares this with the pre-set
threshold valueand then,issues out power increase/decrease commandsto the correspondingmobile station every1.25msec
(800times per second).
Bydoing so, the gain tolerance andthe different radio propagationloss on the forward/backwardlink are complemented.
