Abstract :
A practical model is presented for analysing the multiple access interference (MAI) due to all visible interfering users in CDMA-based multispot beam LEO satellite systems. The authors calculate the average bit error rate with perfect power control for different numbers of interfering users. Showing that the amount of MAI has a substantial effect on the system capacity
