Engineer - . Thus you can get about 5.5 times as many users on a cell than if you just had one big omni-directional cell. Each sector would use the same frequency, but would use a differnt CDMA code. Have they actually managed to get it that high? The numbers I've seen are a little above the system-wide frequency re-use numbers (0.65 x 6 = 4) - say 4.5. The two factors that effect it that I can think of are antenna performance (side lobes and back lobes etc.) and soft-handoff (although it needs to be remembered that soft-handoff is primarily a forward link impact, and since that link has more margin it isn't too big of a problem.). Are they routinely selling hardware now that can boost it by 5.5? TIA Clark
