The letter proposes a method to analyze the system capacity of uplinks with imperfect SIR-based power control in direct sequence/code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) cellular systems with the multipath fading. It considers the received signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) as a random variable due to imperfect SIR-based power control. Based on assumptions regarding the average received SIR, a set of linear equations for the average received power on each uplink is derived. An outage-based system capacity can be then obtained according to the feasibility of the average received power vector and the average bit error rate. Finally, by applying central limit theorem, a closed-form solution for system capacity is approximately derived. Results show that numerical results of the closed-form solution have a good match with simulation results, which supports the validity of the proposed capacity analysis method.
