Abstract

The Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) speech codec is the mandatory for voice service in WCDMA systems. The AMR codec can be used efficiently to provide a balanced trade-off between the capacity and quality of voice by adjusting various service rates. In this paper, three ways of AMR mode allocation schemes on the downlink in WCDMA system are evaluated. To evaluate users satisfaction efficiently, new system performance measure and analytic models are proposed. The proposed analytic models can be applied to obtain optimal mode allocation ways while considering the system capacity and quality of voice. In numerical examples, the ways of finding optimal parameters are illustrated for the given traffic loads and the performances of three mode allocation schemes are compared.
