The impact of imperfect power control and multiuser detection on the uplink of a WCDMA high altitude platform system
Stylianos Karapantazis, F.-N. Pavlidou · IEEE Communications Letters · 2005
Within the broad field of communications, considerable interest has been drawn towards High Altitude Platforms (HAPs) the past few years owing to their appealing features. Among the multitude of services that HAP systems are able to provide, HAPs have the potential to deliver 3G communication services. In this letter, we examine the impact of both imperfect power control and multiuser detection (MUD) on the uplink of a WCDMA HAP system.
