The exact error-probability of this system is derived for the Generalized VW-OOCs (codes with arbitrary cross-correlation) which is necessary for the optimum design of multilevel OCDMA systems. We show that the bit power has an important role on determining the performance of codes with different weights. Furthermore, the results reveal that the performance of low-weight codes depends on the weight of the low-weight codes and the code-weight ratio of two classes. Moreover, our exact analytical model has resulted in more accurate performance analysis than the upper bound in . We have found that the accuracy of the upper bound decreases when the number of simultaneously transmitting high-weight codes increases.

Thus, the CDMA receivers consist of two stages. The first stage is the power estimator and the second one is a Multi-User Detector (MUD). Conventional methods for estimating the user powers are suitable for underor fully-loaded cases (when the number of users is less than or
