A high capacity multihop packet CDMA wireless network

摘要

Wireless multihop networks overlaid with cellular structure havethe potential to support high data rate Internet traffic. In thispaper, we consider techniques by which the system capacity of suchnetworks can be increased. First, methods for increasing linkcapacity in single-user systems are explored. Subsequently, weconsider a different set of techniques suitable for multiusersystems. We also investigate the effect of traffic dynamics onsystem capacity and ways to achieve the maximum throughput.Finally, we present capacity bounds which illustrate how thosetechniques help in trading off the conserved power for capacityadvantage.
