Abstract

The sum capacity of a multiuser synchronous CDMA system is completely characterized in the general case of asymmetric user power constraints-this solves the open problem posed in [7] which had solved the equal power constraint case. We identify the signature sequences with real components that achieve sum capacity and indicate a simple recursive algorithm to construct them.
