A Study of Spread-Spectrum Multiple-Access Communications Over Fading Channels

The performance of asynchronous direct-sequence (DS) and slow-frequency-hopped (SFH) spread-spectrum multiple-access (SSMA) communications over fading channels is investigated. Nonselective, wide-sense-stationary uncorrelated-scattering time- or frequency-selective, and specular multipath fading channels are considered. Thermal noise modeled as additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is also assumed to be present at the receiver.
