Price-Performance Comparison: 3G and Tropos Metro-Scale Cellular Wi-Fi
Overview This paper explores the tradeoffs and limitations inherent to 3G data communications, by analyzing the performance of 1xEV-DO, a representative 3G technology. It will then compare this to what is achievable with Wi-Fi (802.11b) using the Tropos cellular mesh. The analysis of this paper can be generalized to other 3G technologies, such as the WCDMA, and the main conclusions do not differ since the performance of 1xEV-DO and WCDMA are within 10-20% of each other (see "Comparison of services with 1xEV-DO, WCDMA and cdma2000" in [AGILENT]).

Data on 3G: an Introduction to the Third Generation
The telecommunications world is changing as the trends of media convergence, industry consolidation, Internet and Internet Protocol (IP) technologies and mobile communications collide into one. Significant change will be bought...
Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA) for Robust Ad Hoc Vehicle Communication Networks
This paper proposes a novel robust and self-organizing architecture for mobile ad hoc networks. The proposed architecture, Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA), relies on user position information and provides users...
Analysis of a Partial Decorrelator in a Multicell DS-CDMA System
Although the decorrelator has probably drawn more attention than any other multiuser detector, almost all studies have been for a single-cell code-division multiple-access (CDMA) system. In a CDMA system with...
Capacity Simulation of cdma2000 1xEV Wireless Internet Access System
The cdma2000 1xEV standard, also known as IS-856, is the next generation solution to the ever-growing demand for high-speed wireless Internet access. The 1xEV standard is an evolution of the...
CDMA-Based Network-on-Chip Architecture
This paper presents a novel Network-on-Chip (NoC) architecture that is based on Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) techniques. The orthogonality properties of a Walsh code are used to route data...
