Abstract

The bit-error probability of a linear receiver for code-division multiple-access communications is analyzed. The analysis is presented for the additive white Gaussian noise and fading multipath channels also with data-aided channel estimation. Two ways to approximate the averaging over the interfering data symbol combinations are considered and compared. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the usefulness of the analysis methods
