Performance analysis of FH/CDMA packet radio networks in fading channel for integrated voice/data traffics

Abstract

The performance of FH/CDMA packet radio networks for integrated voice/data services with priority is studied in terms of the packet error probability, throughput, and delay. Fast frequency hopping in the fading channel is investigated with different hopping rates. The equal gain combining for the FFH/CDMA signals after noncoherent reception is used and compared under different circumstances. Different error control schemes and priority strategies for voice and data packets are utilized. All the analysis are based on an accurate evaluation method for the symbol error rate.< >
