Co-channel interference Assessment for LMDS Macroscopic Diversity Cellular Architecture

Abstract

Local multipoint distribution system (LMDS) uses cellular fashion to cover service area. In this broadband wireless cellular network, co-channel interference is a severe problem for system performance degradation because the frequency must be reused aggressively. Performance of macroscopic diversity cellular is compared to the typical cellular system. To address the demand of capacity increment, area coverage performances with directional terminal antenna are investigated. The results show that the proposed deployment scheme outperforms than typical cellular architecture.
