Abstract

A system (200) provides a network designer with a mechanism by which to quickly estimate the performance of a code division multiple access wireless communication network. The system (200) allows the designer to enter a group of network and sector parameters. Based on these parameters, the user can choose one of three methods depending on a desire for speed, accuracy, and generality of result. The system (200) determines the pilot strength and interference for each location in the network. The system (200) determines pilot strength to interference values for each location. The system (200) estimates the performance of the communication network using these determined values and accounting for user-defined network parameters.
