Introduction:
Initially developed for military applications during II world war, that was less sensitive to
intentional interference or jamming by third parties. Spread spectrum technology has
blossomed into one of the fundamental building blocks in current and next-generation
wireless systems.
Narrow band can be wiped out due to interference. To disrupt the communication,the
adversary needs to do two things,
(a) to detect that a transmission is taking place and
(b) to transmit a jamming signal which is designed to confuse the receiver.
Solution
A spread spectrum system is therefore designed to make these tasks as difficultas
possible.
Firstly, the transmitted signal should be difficult to detect by an adversary/jammer,i.e.,
the signal should have a low probability of intercept (LPI).
Secondly, the signal should be difficult to disturb with a jamming signal, i.e., the
transmitted signal should possess an anti-jamming (AJ) property
Remedy
spread the narrow band signal into a broad band to protect againstinterference
In a digital communication system the primary resources are Bandwidth and Power.
The study of digital communication system deals with efficient utilization of these two
resources, but there are situations where it is necessary to sacrifice their efficient utilization in
order to meet certain other design objectives.
For example to provide a form of secure communication (i.e. the transmitted signal is
not easily detected or recognized by unwanted listeners) the bandwidth of the transmitted
2. The Spectrum Spreading is accomplished before transmission through the use ofa code
that is independent of the data sequence. The Same code is used in the receiver to
despread the received signal so that the original data sequence may be recovered.
Solution
A direct sequence spread binary phase shift keying system uses a feedbackshift
register of length 19 for the generation of PN sequence. Calculate the processing gain of
the system.
