Abstract

We present a computationally efficient method of evaluating the probability of multiple correct packet reception in coded synchronous frequency-hopped spread-spectrum (FHSS) networks. We show that the approximation using the independent receiver operation assumption (IROA), which has been frequently employed in the literature without rigorous validation, produces reasonable results in most network load conditions when compared to the exact computations derived from our proposed method. Specifically, the expected value of the absolute error was in the range of 0.0055%-18.21% in the investigated scenarios
