Abstract

CDMA systems commonly use power control mechanism to reduce the amount of interference between the users. We challenge this common practice by considering non-continuous transmission and probability control mechanism. We analyze the effect of the transmission probability on the average signal-to-noise plus interference ratio (SIR), and give a sufficient condition for CDMA systems In which probability control (and not power control) Is the optimal method for balancing users' interference. We also demonstrate this condition on a CDMA system with a single RAKE finger. Results are applicable both for CDMA and for impulse radio (IR) systems.
