UMTS UL link Budget C

Formulas

EIRP=Tx Power+Antenna Gain-losses

Receiver noise density No [dB]=Thermel Noise density[dBm/Hz]+NF[dB]

Noise Floor (Receiver noise power) dB=No dB+10 log(chip rate)

Processing Gain dB=10 log(chip rate/bit rate)=10 log(3840kbps/bit ratekbps)

Eb/No dB = Ec/Io dB + Processing Gain dB

Receiver Sensitivity or required minimum signal power or required minimum RSCP
[dB]=Noise Floor dB + SNR (Ec/Io) dB

Noise Rise (Interference Margin)[dB]= -10 log(1-UL cell loading factor)
