Abstract
We derive a computationally feasible closed form error expression for probability of error for a small multiple access DS-BPSK system operating in a Rayleigh fading environment. Two properties of the crosscorrelation functions of the DS codes help reduce the number of error probability evaluations required when one considers all possible phase shifts of the users’ codes. Examination of the error rates for different phases of three maximal-length codes reveal that the probability of error is only weakly dependent on the phases.
