Abstract
An expanding demand for wireless communication systems requires researchers to find novel ways to consume less bandwidth while providing connectivity for multiple users. This thesis proposes an additive narrowband communication system which allows multiple users to occupy the same bandwidth without the use of a spreading code. Amplitude and bandwidth (data rate) discrepancies among users provide a means of extracting each individual user’s signal from the aggregate received signal. Bit error rate expressions are derived for a two user additive narrowband system operating over an additive white Gaussian noise channel. The uplink and downlink systems are analyzed separately and bit error expressions are provided for each case. Custom built hardware used to model an additive narrowband system is discussed. Experimental and simulation results are provided and are in excellent agreement with the analytical results.
