- Modeling TCP in a Multi-Rate Multi-User CDMA System
- Modern CDMA wireless channels support multiple transmission rates, which can be dynamically assigned to users based on traffic demand. However, in practice, assignment of high rate channels comes with the penalty of increased power as well as smaller orthogonal codes, which constrains their assignment to only a subset of active...
