Spread Spectrum
important encoding method for wireless communications
analog & digital data with analog signal
spreads data over wide bandwidth
makes jamming and interception harder
two approaches, both in use:
Frequency Hopping Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum Advantages
immunity from noise and multipath distortion
can hide / encrypt signals
several users can share same higher bandwidth with little interference CDM/CDMA Mobile telephones
Pseudorandom Numbers
generated by a deterministic algorithm
not actually random but if algorithm good, results pass reasonable tests of randomness
starting from an initial seed
need to know algorithm and seed to predict sequence
hence only receiver can decode signal
Frequency Hopping Example
FHSS (Transmitter)
Slow and Fast FHSS
commonly use multiple FSK (MFSK)
have frequency shifted every Tc seconds
duration of signal element is Ts seconds
Slow FHSS has Tc Ts
Fast FHSS has Tc < Ts
FHSS quite resistant to noise or jamming
with fast FHSS giving better performance
Slow MFSK FHSS
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)
each bit is represented by multiple bits using a spreading code
this spreads signal across a wider frequency band
has performance similar to FHSS
Direct Sequence Spread
Spectrum Example
