Effect of wireless link characteristics on packet-level QoS in CDMA

In this paper, we analyze the effect of wireless link characteristics on throughput, packet delay, and packet loss rate in code-division multiple-access (CDMA) networks using carrier-sense multiple-access (CSMA) protocols. Although CSMA protocols are being extensively considered for applications in...
