Abstract This paper evaluates the performance of CDMA since the modulated coded signal has a much higher data
signaling technique using MATLAB using various codes and bandwidth than the data being communicated.
channels. Further it includes the performance of synchronous
DS-CDMA systems over multipath fading channel and AWGN
Channel. The synchronous DS-CDMA system is well known for
eliminating the effects of multiple access interference (MAI)
which limits the capacity and degrades the BER performance of
the system. This paper investigates the bit error rate (BER)
performance of a synchronous DS-CDMA system over AWGN
and Rayleigh channel, which is affected by the different number
of users, as well as different types spreading codes. Different
MATLAB functions and MATLAB program segments are
explained for the simulation of CDMA signaling system. This Fig. 1 Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
system retains the advantages of CDMA in combating multipath
and rejecting interference, and provides variable and adaptive
data rates through the use of Multi-Code scheme. The
performance improvement of the proposed system to the Multi-
Code CDMA system is shown through simulations. Walsh-
Hadamard, PN sequence and Gold codes are explored as possible
choices for multiple codes in system.
I. INTRODUCTION
Future wireless systems like 4th generation (4G)
cellular systems aim to integrate a variety of services such as Fig. 2 CDMA Forward Link Transmitter Modulation
voice, data, image, and video. These services have different
requirements on the bandwidth and the rate of transmission on
a wireless platform. To this end, future generation systems
will have to handle a variety of bit rates. Moreover, wireless
channels are characterized by multipath propagation and
multiple access interference.
One of the concepts in data communication is the
idea of allowing several transmitters to send information
simultaneously over a single communication channel. This
allows several users to share a band of frequencies. This
concept is called multiple access. CDMA employs spread-
spectrum technology and a special coding scheme (where each
transmitter is assigned a code) to allow multiple users to be
multiplexed over the same physical channel. By contrast, time

To modulate a signal spread spectrum techniques are
used. Various codes that are used in spread spectrum
techniques are as:
A. Pseudo Noise Sequence

C. Gold Code
B. Walsh-Hadamard codes:
These codes are orthogonal codes. It provides zero
cross correlation among all users, but only if the codes are
aligned in time or used in synchronous channels. Therefore, Fig. 8 Simulation Result

generations mobile communication systems. In this paper, we
introduce the Rayleigh and AWGN Channel, and investigated
the bit error rate (BER) performance of a synchronous DS-
CDMA system over these channels. In the DS-CDMA system,
the narrowband message signal is multiplied by a large
bandwidth signal, which is called the spreading of a signal.
The spreading signal is generated by convolving PN sequence
or Gold sequence code with a chip waveform whose duration
is much smaller than the symbol duration. All users in the
system use the same carrier frequency and may transmit
simultaneously. The receiver performs a correlation operation
to detect the message addressed to a given user and the signals
from other users appear as noise due to decorrelation.
