Abstract

A narrow-band multiuser receiver based on successive signal detection and subtraction, is considered. The symbol error probability (SEP) for M-PSK modulated signals is evaluated and analytical approximations for the SEP of the individual signals are presented and compared with results obtained from simulations. For geometrically related signal amplitudes, a constant minimum distance can be guaranteed independent of the number of signals. The required amplitude ratio is shown to be related to M and the number of co-channel signals. Optimizing the transmitted power for the different signals while ensuring the same SEP is then addressed and closed-form expressions of the signal amplitude ratios are derived. The effect of inaccurately estimated signal parameters due to noise is also analyzed. SEP results are presented for synchronous signals in an additive white Gaussian noise environment.
