| Abstract: | This letter presents an analytical model for evaluating the bit error rate (BER) of a direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system, with M-ary orthogonal modulation and noncoherent detection, employing an array antenna operating in a Nakagami fading environment. An expression of the signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) at the output of the receiver is derived, which allows the BER to be evaluated using a closed form expression. The analytical model is validated by comparing the obtained results with simulation results. |
