Bit error rate(BER) performance of each bit for hierarchical M-ary phase shift keying(H-MPSK) modulation scheme is changed according to the phase parameters. Thus, a method to find the phase parameters appropriate to the requests of the system is needed. In this paper, we propose a method to obtain the phase parameters from an approximate approach of BER for H-MPSK and verify a validity of the proposed method through the previously provided expression for analyzing an exact error probability of H-MPSK.

MultiCode-CDMA (MC-CDMA) system of chip level MPSK incorporating with clipper (MP-CDMA)[l] shows constant envelope signal which can mitigate the performance degradation due to nonlinear transmit amplifier. In this paper, modulation is modified to carry out differential encoded MPSK rather than MPSK. The modified system is called DMP-CDMA. DMP-CDMA using differential detection has advantages on receiver complexity and pilot overhead. However, it is inferior to coherent detection by about 4.0dB due to inherent power inefficiency of noncoherent detection and the error propagation. Multiple symbol differential detection is employed in order to improve DMP-CDMA using differential detection. As the result, the performance of DMP-CDMA system is improved about 3.6dB compared to differential detection.
