Abstract: | In this letter we introduce a direct-sequence code-division multiple access (DS/CDMA) concept which accommodates a higher number of users than the spreading factor N. Each of the available orthogonal spreading sequences of length N is assigned to one of the first N users which employ a common pseudonoise (PN) scrambling sequence. When the number of users K exceeds N, say K=N+M with MN. The proposed technique thus accommodates N users without any mutual interference and a number of additional users at the expense of a small signal-to-noise ratio penalty |
