Technical Capability of the Radio Access Technology 1xEV-DO

摘要

The performance of a mobile network is essentially based on the capability of its radio access technology. This paper presents technical capabilities of the emerging radio access technology lxEV-DO. Such capabilities are expressed in terms of throughputs, and are based on realistic radio and geographical parameters, as well as realistic traffic models. Simulation results enable to evaluate how environment conditions affect the throughput offered by 1xEV-DO.
