Abstract

An asynchronous binary DS-CDMA system using random spreading sequences is considered in flat Hoyt fading channels. A new closed-form expression is derived for the conditional characteristic function of the multiple access interference. The exact average BER is expressed as a single numerical integration based on the characteristic function approach. The numerical results obtained from our exact BER analysis are verified by our simulation results and also compared to those obtained by the standard Gaussian approximation
