Abstract
The reverse-link performance of synchronous DS-CDMA is investigated in Rician multipath fading environments. The numerical results show that the performance benefits of synchronous transmission depend on the specular path's power as well as on the multipath intensity decay factor of the channel. The achievable bit-error-rate reduction may become as high as an order of magnitude in comparison to the corresponding asynchronous system.
