Performance of quaternary direct-sequence spread-spectrum multiple-access (DS-SSMA) systems with complex signature sequences and complex modulators and receivers in flat Rayleigh fading is investigated in this paper. Due to the availability of potentially large sets of complex sequences with good correlation characteristics, the interest of using complex spreading sequences in DS-SSMA has increased dramatically. The complex spreading sequences investigated in this paper include the recently introduced orthogonal unified complex Hadamard transform (UCHT) sequences. In this paper, complex processing in modulators and receivers is also employed in order to take advantage of the correlation properties of complex signature sequences. The average bit error rate (BER) for quaternary synchronous systems is obtained first, and then the BER for quaternary asynchronous systems is evaluated using characteristic function approach. Result based on Gaussian approximation method is also presented for asynchronous systems. The numerical examples illustrate that the systems based on UCHT spreading sequences perform generally better than the Gold sequences and the 4-phase family A-sequences.
