OVERVIEW
  • DEFINITION
  • Spread spectrum (SS) is a means of signal
    transmission in which
  1. The transmitted signal occupies a bandwidth which
    is much greater than the minimum necessary to
    send the information.
  2. Spreading is accomplished by means of a spreading
    signal called a code signal, which is
    independent of the data.
  3. At the receiver, despreading is done by
    correlating the received SS signal with a
    synchronized replica of the spreading signal.

WHY SPREAD SPECTRUM ?
  • Interference Suppression
  • Antijam capability
  • Natural interference rejection
  • Self-interference (multipath protection)
  • Energy Density Reduction
  • Low probability of intercept (LPI)
  • Low probability of exploitation (LPE)
  • National allocation regulations
  • High-Resolution Ranging
  • Multiple Access
  • Communications resource sharing
  • Communications privacy

  • The essence of interference rejection capability
    in SS systems can be summarized as
  1. Multiplication once by the spreading code spreads
    the signal bandwidth
  2. Multiplication twice by the spreading code
    followed by filtering, recovers the original data
    signal
  3. The desired signal gets multiplied twice, but the
    interference gets multiplied only once

SPREAD SPECTRUM TECHNIQUES
  • Direct Sequence (DS) - A carrier is modulated by
    a digital code sequence in which bit rate is much
    higher than the information signal bandwidth.
  • Frequency Hopping (FH) - A carrier frequency is
    shifted in discrete increments in a pattern
    dictated by a code sequence.
  • Time Hopping (TH) - Bursts of the carrier signal
    are initiated at times dictated by a code
    sequence.
  • Hybrid Systems - Use of combination of the
    above.
  • Others - Carrier-less based, transform domain
    systems

INFORMATION RATE vs. SYMBOL RATE
  • Information in its most fundamental form is
    measured in bits (binary digits)
  • A signal which conveys binary information is the
    binary digital waveform

INFORMATION RATE vs. SYMBOL RATE (Continued)
  • Binary information can be conveyed by M-ary
    (multilevel) digital waveforms

Rs symbol (baud) rate 1/T symbols/sec Rb
information rate 1/T Log2M Where M number of
levels in the M-ary waveform For the example
shown Rs 333 symbols/sec Rb 1000 bits/sec

PERFORMANCE CRITERIADigital vs. Analog Systems
  • Analog communication systems reproduce waveforms
    (an infinite set)
  • A figure of merit for analog systems is a
    fidelity criterion (e.g. percent distortion
    between transmitted and recovered waveforms)
  • Digital communication systems transmit waveforms
    that represent digits (a finite set)
  • A figure of merit for digital systems is the
    quantity of incorrectly detected digits

WHY DIGITAL?
But let your communication be, Yea, yea Nay,
nay for whatever is more that these, cometh of
evil. - The Gospel According to St.
Matthew (537)
  • Demand Increased requirement for computer to
    computer communications
  • Signal Regeneration Resistant to noise,
    interference, and distortion
  • Digital Signal Processing Allows error detection
    and correction permits ease of encryption and
    use of AJ techniques
  • Technology Digital communication systems are
    more flexible and are better suited for future
    communication needs
  • Economics Components are becoming increasingly
    more available and less expensive. Ability to
    rapidly troubleshoot and repair systems reduce
    overall maintenance costs as well as increasing
    system availability
