Abstract

This paper is concerned with the bit-error rate (BER) performance of a cellular one-hop/symbol frequency-hopping multiple-access (FHMA) system operating through a multipath Rayleigh fading channel. M-ary frequency shift keying modulation with noncoherent square-law envelope demodulation and Reed-Solomon (RS) coding is considered. The multiple-access and adjacent cell interference of the cellular FHMA system has been studied. In order to illustrate how sensitive both systems are to the near/far problem, performance of the FHMA system is compared with that of a direct-sequence code-division multiple-access system for an equal system bandwidth. Also, this paper investigates the effect of the values of frequency reuse factor (N) on the system capacity of the cellular frequency-hopping system.
