Technical challenges and solutions for narrow-band (IS-95) CDMA

Wireless Technologies China `99 ? Conference Proceedings 1 Walid Y. Ali-Ahmad, Ph.D. Senior RF Engineer MAXIM Integrated Products Technical challenges and solutions for narrow-band (IS-95) CDMA Abstract CDMA is the fastest growing wireless technology and is projected to be the leading technology worldwide in a few years. This paper presents a complete radio chipset for narrow-band CDMA (IS-95) and discusses the technical problems associ- ated with IS-95. CDMA chipset system performance is pre- sented based on simulation and measurements. Author's contact details: Walid Y.
