Design of an emergency PMR network based on CDMA 450 in İstanbul metropolitan region

Abstract

In this work, a complete design of PMR (Professional Mobile Radio) network based on CDMA 450 in ˙Istanbul metropolitan region is presented. Coverage and capacity analysis are performed by the developed simulation software tool. Trade off between several system parameters such as quality of service, user mobility, traffic distribution, data rate and bandwidth are considered to optimize the capacity and coverage of the network. Coverage and handoff areas are shown on the map by the aid of GIS (Geographical Information Systems) tool. System capacity and coverage are presented as the main results of the proposed network.
