This article considers a quaternary direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) communication system with asymmetric quadrature phase-shift-keying (AQPSK) modulation for unequal error protection (UEP) capability. Both time synchronous and asynchronous cases are investigated. An expression for the probability distribution of the multiple-access interference is derived. The exact bit-error performance and the approximate performance using a Gaussian approximation and random signature sequences are evaluated by extending the techniques used for uniform quadrature phase-shift-keying (QPSK) and binary phase-shift-keying (BPSK) DS-CDMA systems. Finally, a general system model with unequal user power and the near-far problem is considered and analyzed. The results show that, for a system with UEP capability, the less protected data bits are more sensitive to the near-far effect that occurs in a multiple-access environment than are the more protected bits.Wang, C.-W. and Stark, W.Jet Propulsion LaboratoryQUADRATURE PHASE SHIFT KEYING; BINARY PHASE SHIFT KEYING; ASYMMETRY; CODE DIVISION MULTIPLE ACCESS; PHASE SHIFT KEYING; MULTIPLE ACCESS; PROTECTION; RELIABILITY ANALYSIS
