As a generalization of the binary coding-spreading scheme, nonbinary coding-spreading scheme is proposed for a synchronous binary-input multiple-access channel (MAC) with Gaussian noise, equal-power, and equal-rate users. In this scheme, each user employs the same nonbinary low-density parity-check code serially concatenated with a nonbinary low-rate mapping, referred to as nonbinary spreading. A user-specific interleaving is employed to make the transmitted data of each user random-like. It is shown that the iterative multi-user decoding threshold of nonbinary coding-spreading scheme is less than 0.5 dB away from the MAC capacity at many sum rates.
