Abstract

This paper investigates the application of Reed-Solomon coding on DS/CDMA systems with M-ary orthogonal signaling for the reverse link of a microcellular environment. The performance of voice and data communications are analytically evaluated for a Rician or Rayleigh faded channel with lognormal shadowing and a two-slope path loss model. The effects of sectorization and antenna diversity are also considered. Numerical results, in terms of bit error probability and throughput, show that with proper selection of the coding rate and spreading, the proposed system presents enhanced performance with moderate complexity.
