Spread Spectrum by Sam

The document discusses spread spectrum communication techniques. It defines spread spectrum as a technique that spreads a narrowband signal over a wide frequency range for transmission and then de-spreads it back to the original bandwidth at the receiver. It explains two main types of spread spectrum: frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) and direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS). FHSS transmits signals by hopping between frequencies, while DSSS represents each bit with a spreading code that spreads the signal across a wider bandwidth. The document provides examples and diagrams to illustrate how FHSS and DSSS systems work.

Spread Spectrum

Spread spectrum is a communication technique that spreads a narrowband communication signal over a wide range of frequencies for transmission then de-spreads it into the original data bandwidth at the receive. Spread spectrum is characterized by:
1) 2)

wide bandwidth and low power

Jamming and interference have less effect on Spread spectrum because it is:
1)

Resembles noise to detect

Narrow Band vs Spread Spectrum


l

Narrow Band
1)

Uses only enough frequency spectrum to carry the signal High peak power Easily jammed The bandwidth is much wider than required to send to the signal. Low peak power Hard to detect

Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS)

Signal broadcast over seemingly random series of frequencies Receiver hops between frequencies in sync with transmitter Eavesdroppers hear unintelligible blips Jamming on one frequency affects only a few bits

Slow and Fast FHSS


Frequency shifted every Tc seconds Duration of signal element is Ts seconds Slow FHSS has Tc Ts Fast FHSS has Tc < Ts Generally fast FHSS gives improved performance in noise (or jamming)

Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)

Each bit represented by multiple bits using spreading code Spreading code spreads signal across wider frequency band

In proportion to number of bits used 10 bit spreading code spreads signal across 10 times bandwidth of 1 bit code

One method:

Combine input with spreading code using XOR Input bit 1 inverts spreading code bit Input zero bit doesnt alter spreading code bit

Data 11/26/12 rate equal to original spreading code
