GSM has no inherent advantage from spectral effeciency to do WLL, so they get the same capacity as GSM mobil. CDMA WLL gets better as you fix the phone location so CDMA WLL gets more like 40-60x analog capacity where mobile CDMA gets 10-25x analog. The overall cost for CDMA versus peak capapcity is actually lower. or if you want, the cost per user on a loaded system is lower than a GSM system.
