Abstract

In this paper, the handoff margins are analyzed using the propagation attenuation which is modeled as a product of the fourth power of the distant and a log-normal random variable whose standard deviation is 8 ㏈. The effect of handoff techniques on cell coverage for CDMA system are shown that soft handoff increases cell coverage relative to hard handoff. When the cell radius extends 5-10 % and the outage probability is 10 %, the relative cell coverage area is extended 3.22 ㏈-3.99 ㏈ and 2.55 ㏈-2.85 ㏈ with power control and without power control, respectively.
