Multi-Cell Dynamic Resource Allocation for DS-CDMA

Abstract

This project is concerned with Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) for a multimedia cellular DS-CDMA network. DS-CDMA "resources" include transmitted powers, processing gains, and number of codes. Our goals are to (1) Develop techniques for DRA given multiple traffic flows with different Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, and (2)  Characterize performance/complexity tradeoffs associated with these techniques given simple traffic and propagation models.
