Grey-based power control for DS-CDMA cellular mobile systems
Szu‐Lin Su, Yu-Che Su, Jen-Fa Huang · IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology · 2000
The propagation channel of a mobile radio system exhibits severe signal shadowing and multipath fading, which results in wide variation of signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) at the receiver. To tackle this problem, power control is used to maintain the desired link quality and thus achieve higher capacity. In order to mitigate the channel variation effect precisely, a new application of grey theory to the power control strategy in the direct-sequence code-division multiple-access cellular mobile systems is introduced. This scheme aims to predict the SIR affected by the channel variation at the receiver and issue an appropriate control signal to the transmitter. The simulation results indicate that the grey-based scheme can offer less outage probability than the previous mechanisms.
