Abstract
The expected interference power in a digital cellular radio system using frequency hopping code division multiple access is investigated. The up-link only is considered. Using both analytical and numerical methods, a probability density function for this power is derived. This function is used to predict the hop erasure probability of a system, as a function of the tolerable signal to interference ratio and of the system load.
