Performance of wideband CDMA systems supporting multimedia traffic

We evaluate the performance of wideband CDMA cellular systems providing different classes of multimedia traffic and supporting user mobility. A Markovian teletraffic model of the user dynamics is developed. Constraints are imposed in the model which account for the multiple access interference among active users. Results are shown in terms of call blocking probabilities and average number of active connections. The methodology proposed is a useful tool for the design and planning of third generation cellular systems
