Error Probabilities for Slow-Frequency-Hopped Spread-Spectrum Multiple-Access Communications Over Fading Channels

Bounds and approximations are obtained for the average probability of error in an asynchronous slow-frequency-hopped spread-spectrum multiple-access communications system with non-coherent binary frequency-shift-keyed (FSK) data transmission. Both nonselective fading and wide-sense-stationary uncorrelated-scattering fading are considered.
