Abstract

A new asymptotic analysis is presented to establish whether or not commonly used techniques to approximate the performance of direct-sequence spread-spectrum multiple-access (DS/SSMA) systems still apply when the systems are strictly band limited. The results apply to any linear data modulation and spreading scheme. The interference components, including the interchip interference (ICI) of a linear receiver output, are shown to be asymptotically jointly Gaussian random variables conditioned on the phases and delays of the interfering signals. Expressions for the error probabilities of band-limited systems are also developed from this result.
