Abstract

In this paper, we derive an outage probability for the Erlang capacity and the link margin respectively, calculate them with the same parameters and outage probability, and then analyze a capacity and cell coverage in city, suburban, and open area. So, the Erlang capacity is more real than in a cell, and the cell coverage can be calculated with high reliability by the margin. When the $E_b/N_o$ decreases from 7 dB to 5 dB within the outage probability of 5 %, it is observed that the capacity is increased from 18 Erlang to 31 Erlang with the same margin of 2.8 dB, then the coverage is increased to 0.4 km, 1 km, and 2.5 km in city, suburban, and open area respectively. Also if the outage probability is decreased from 5 % to 2 % in case of $E_b/N_o$ of 5 dB, the result shows a very reliable link with additional increment of 0.88 dB in the margin and a high QoS (quality of service) within decrement of 0.15 km, 0.5 km, and 1.5 km for the same areas with decrement of 3 Erlang from 31 Erlang.

불완전 전력제어된 역방향 링크에서 얼랑용량과 링크마진을 구하는 각각의 차단확률을 유도하고, 시스템 파라메터와 차단확률이 같은 조건에서 그 값을 구하여 도시, 교외, 개방지역에서 사용자 수와 셀 커버리지와의 관계를 분석할 때 파라메터로 적용하였다. 이때 얼랑용량은 현실적인 셀 용량으로 적용될 수 있고, 링크마진의 적용은 셀 커버리지 계산에서 신뢰성을 높일 수 있었다. 차단확률이 5 % 이내에서 E$_{b}$/N$_{o}$ 값을 7 dB에서 5 dB로 낮추는 경우에 링크마진을 2.8 dB로 똑같이 적용해도 셀 용량은 18 얼랑에서 31 얼랑으로 증가하였고, 이때 도시, 교외, 개방지역에서 셀 커버리지는 각각 0.4 km, 1 km, 2.5 km씩 증가하였다. 또한 E$_{b}$/N$_{o}$ 값이 5 dB에서 차단확률을 5 %에서 2 %로 낮출 경우 링크마진은 0.88 dB 더 증가시켜야 하며, 이때 용량이 31 얼랑에서 3얼랑 감소함에 따라 0.15 km, 0.5 km, 1.5 km 씩 줄어드는 범위 내에서 신뢰성을 높이고 양질의 서비스 제공이 가능하였다.
