Abstract: | The performance of asynchronous slow frequency-hop spread-spectrum multiple-access networks where each user transmits L, M-ary symbols per hop using M-ary frequency-shift keying (FSK) modulation with noncoherent demodulation is investigated. Expressions for the decision variables are derived for a given multiple FSK (MFSK) symbol within a hop hit by K' interfering users under additive white Gaussian noise and Rayleigh fading channel models. For the special case when M=2, an accurate analytic approximation for the average error probability is derived as a function of L and K' and semianalytic Monte Carlo simulations are performed to estimate the probability of error for M larger than 2. The results are used to investigate the dependence of the average symbol error probability on L and M. Finally, the effect of enforcing phase transition between the MFSK symbols within a hop is investigated |
