Abstract :
We analyze the effect of a nonlinearity on the bit error rate performance of convolutionally coded multicarrier spread spectrum (MCSS) systems in the presence of multipath fading. This is an extension of the work of Jong and Stark (see IEEE VTC´98, p.2027-31, 1998) to include the effect of a nonlinearity on coded MCSS systems
