Abstract

A common packet data channel (CPDC) architecture is proposed to support bursty, packet-based services in direct sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) integrated wireless access networks. The architecture employs an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) strategy in the forward CPDC link and a spread ALOHA-type random access strategy in the reverse CPDC link. A congestion control algorithm using base station broadcast and portable terminal random delay call reattempt is described. A performance analysis of the CPDC architecture and algorithms is carried out, and formulas for the bit error rate, blocking probability, system delay time, transmission time, and waiting time for packet data calls are derived. The interference caused by a CPDC to stream services in the network is determined, and the capacity of a CPDC is evaluated in terms of the number of packet data subscribers that can be served with a specified grade of service (GOS)
