Abstract

A computationally efficient bit-error rate (BER) expression for a fast frequency-hopping binary frequency-shift-keying (FFH/BFSK) spread-spectrum system is derived based on Taylor-series expansion of the central differences. The FFH system employs a soft-decision linear-combining receiver against the worst-case band multitone jamming (MTJ) and additive white Gaussian noise. The analytical results are shown to match closely with the BER results based on simulation. This approach allows us to efficiently analyze the performance of the linear-combining receiver with higher diversity levels, which is otherwise mathematically intractable.
