service with smaller margin. operation at lower Eb/Io.
Greater Coverage The Eb/Io received is normally the amount that’s required plus some margin. In CDMA systems, the Eb/Io required is generally lower because strong Convolutional codes are applied to all of the information bits, rather than to just some of the bits. The margin required is also lower due to the Soft Hand-off capability. These combine to produce a significant range advantage. The amount of advantage is situation dependent and is impacted strongly by the terrain. CDMA has a 5-10 dB link budget advantage which results in a significant range advantage (Eb/Io)received = (Eb/Io)required + Margin Soft Hand-off enables CDMA to provide acceptable level of service with smaller margin. Strong coding enables operation at lower Eb/Io.

76
Rate 3/4 Coding Rate 3/4 coding is achieved by puncturing the symbol stream output from a Rate 1/2 coder. Every 3 bits will result in 6 symbols produced by the Rate 1/2 coder. Of these 6 symbols, only 4 will be transmitted. 2 will be deleted or “punctured” according to a fixed pattern. This fixed pattern enables the receiver to identify the position of the missing symbol, then attempt to decide on the proper value of each missing symbol using the error correcting capability of the code.

Gating Off Transmitter reduces average power
Symbol repetition on the Reverse Traffic Channel is done for convenience. The repeated symbols are not actually transmitted. Repeating symbols is simply a convenient way of maintaining the alignment and timing between symbols to allow for “Gating” the transmittter off. This method of turning off the transmitter reduces the average power transmitted from the mobile.

Cellular Service is normally subscribed to from a particular system. Obtaining Service from another system is possible, but additional charges are generally incurred. Users travelling outside their normal Service area are are said to be “Roaming”.

209
Types of CDMA Handoffs
210
Multi-Cell “Soft” Handoff
211
Multi-Sector “Softer” Handoff
Can have up to 2 sectors involved (same cell) Voice data is combined at cell and passed as one frame to the Base Station Controller (switch) Mobile receives Forward Link from each cell (Two Walsh codes)
212
One Channel Element can transmit thru multiple sectors.
213
Multi-Cell / Multi-Sector Handoff
214
Soft Handoff Increases Capacity
CDMA Soft Handoff typically begins closer to the previous Base Station which results in less power TX. Hard Handoff typically occurs farther away from the serving Base Station = More power required
215
Typical Soft Hand-off Percentages
Two-way Hand-off (20% of time) Three-way Hand-off (10% of time) No Hand-off (70% of time)

Window search size is specified in the System Parameters Message initially and updated in both the System Parameters Message and the Handoff Direction Message. SRCH_WIN_A: Specifies window size for Active Set and Candidate Set SRCH_WIN_N: Specifies window size for Neighbor Set SRCH_WIN_R: Specifies window size for Remaining Set
