Chapter Content
• Spread spectrum signals used for the transmission of digital information are distinguished by the characteristic that their bandwidth W is much greater than the information rate R in bits/s. That is, the bandwidth expansion factor Be =W/R for a spread spectrum signal is much greater than unity.
– The large redundancy inherent in spread spectrum signals is required to overcome the severe levels of interference that are encountered in the transmission of digital information over some radio and satellite channels.
• Spread spectrum signals are used for– Combating or suppressing the detrimental effects of interference due to jamming,
interference arising from other users of the channel, and self-interference due to multipath propagation.
– Hiding a signal by transmitting it at low power and, thus, making it difficult for an unintended listener to detect in the presence of background noise.
– Achieving message privacy in the presence of other listeners.• General applications:
– Sonar, radar, GPS, Bluetooth, Military communications, narrowband interference communications (all forms of jamming), multiuser communications (CDMA cell phones), maintain average power in a link (telephony).ECE 6640 3

Spread Spectrum Model
• “Spreading” performed by a pseudorandom sequence generator.– The pattern/sequence must be known to both ends and
synchronization must occur.– Often an initial contact is made (link entry and establishment) and
then a new code or sequence would be used for the communications.

Popular Classes of Systems
• Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)– A pseudorandom “chipping” sequence is used to spread an
underlying binary data stream. The chip rate defines the spectrralbandwidth.
• Frequency Hopping– A narrower bandwidth communication signal is periodically
moved to different centers frequencies in a defined frequency band in a pseudorandom way.
– Systems may be characterized as slow or fast hopping based on the time spent at each frequency (or the number of symbols transmitted during each dwell time at a frequency).

Benefits
• Interference suppression– intentional (jamming) or
unintentional (spurious interference)
• Jamming– Jamming bandwidth involves all
signal spectrum locations– Jamming bandwidth is partial
band
• May also become low probability of detection (LPD) or low probability of interception (LPI)

Energy Density Reduction
• By spreading the energy of the transmitted signal, it may be more difficult to detect (LPD)
• There are cases in DSSS where the effective signal power is below the noise floor, which makes detection and interception difficult (LPI)
• If the signal is difficult to detect or intercept, other forms of tracking or exploitation become unavailable (position fixing as in an E911 system).

Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
• The data signal is “spread” by a spreading code or chipping sequence with a much higher rate or bandwidth.
• When the same spreading code is applied at the receiver, the noise becomes spread and the signal of interest becomes “squared”. – noise is spread, signal becomes despread.

PN Code and Data
• Encoding involves “multiplying” an integer number of PN code chips for each bit of data.
• Typically the chip rate is significantly higher than the data bit rate!– Bandwidth
expansion– Spreading gain

Autocorrelation
• If we transmit the DSS signal, there is a time delay due to distance. Thus, we must time align the received DSS with the chip sequence in order to receive it.

Randomness Properties
• Balance Property– for periods of the code we want the total number of ‘0’’s and ‘1’s
to be balanced (nearly equal).
• Run Property– Minimize long runs of either ‘1’s or ‘0’s. The maximum would be
n for a LFSR, but it only happens once.
• Correlation Property– The correlation is a maximum at one point and insignificant
elsewhere.

GPS User Position Computation• GPS uses the triangulation of signals from the
satellites to determine locations on earth. • GPS satellites know their location in space and
receivers can determine their distance from a satellite by using the travel time of a radio message from the satellite to the receiver.
• After calculating its relative position to at least 4 satellites, a GPS receiver can calculate its position using triangulation.
• They also have a database (or almanac) of the current and expected positions for all of the satellites that is frequently updated from earth.

Code Division Multiple Access
• CDMA in the US is associated with Qualcomm, San Diego, CA.– Early related standards IS-95 and IS-2000 or CDMA2000
• IS-95 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IS-95)– In the forward direction, radio signals are transmitted by base stations
(BTS's). All forward transmissions are QPSK with a chip rate of 1,228,800 per second. Each signal is spread with a Walsh code of length 64 and a pseudo-random noise code (PN code) of length 215, yielding a PN roll-over period of 80/3 ms.
– For the reverse direction, radio signals are transmitted by the mobile. Reverse link transmissions are OQPSK in order to operate in the optimal range of the mobile's power amplifier. Like the forward link, the chip rate is 1,228,800 per second and signals are spread with Walsh codes and the pseudo-random noise code, which is also known as a Short Code.

Frequency Hopping
• In a frequency-hopped (FH) spread spectrum communication system the available channel bandwidth is subdivided into a large number of contiguous frequency slots. In any signaling interval, the transmitted signal occupies one or more of the available frequency slots. The selection of the frequency slot(s) in each signaling interval is made pseudorandomly according to the output from a PN generator.

Typical FH Modulation Type
• Although PSK modulation gives better performance than FSK in an AWGN channel, it is sometimes difficult to maintain phase coherence in the synthesis of the frequencies used in the hopping pattern and, also, in the propagation of the signal over the channel as the signal is hopped from one frequency to another over a wide bandwidth. Consequently, FSK modulation with noncoherent detection is often employed with FH spread spectrum signals.

Hop Rate
• Repeated or partial symbol period – Fast Hopping– Bandwidth consideration due to time intervals
• Single Symbol • Multiple Symbols – Slow hop
• Challenge of hopping rates– The local oscillator or carrier frequency must retune and become
stable. This takes time.– Use multiple oscillators, select one at a time. Oscillator settling
time is the repetition interval for the oscillator.

Processing Gain
• From the respect of the hopping frequency band
• However, fundamentally the underlying communication process (FSK based) is being maintained even though the carrier frequency is moving in a broader band. – Entire hops can be eliminated due to narrowband interference.– Encoding and decoding for burst errors is desired …

FFH Synchronization and Demodulation
• A polyphase filterbank channelizing receiver is perfect for this application. Multiple uniformly spaced frequncy bins can be simultaneously monitored …
• Fast scanning may be too slow (snapshot spectrum analysis)

FH Serial search
• If the PN sequence is known, once one hop is found a limited number of frequencies can follow. – For faster acquisition a subset of frequencies could be used.

Jamming Consideration
• Intentional Jamming– Usually military or some type of adversary
• Inadvertent Jamming– Erroneous radio transmitter operation – unintentional– Harmonic transmission – poor transmitter performance
• Self Jamming– Communication in the same band too close or with incorrect power
levels. Cellular telephone system adjacent channel interference (ACI) or base-to-base interference (BBI). Also the “near-far” problem.
– Too many simultaneous signal users.(each transmitter adds to the local noise plus interference level)

Jammer Waveforms
• Noise• Pseudo random sequences• Tones• Modulated noise• Signal like noise or a particular signal characteristic
– Jam pilot tones or access channels only– Find signals that “defeat” specific signal features or attributes– Eliminate signal detection or acquisition features required by a
receiver … then you don’t have to worry about the rest of the signal.

Noise plus Interference
• For noise-like jamming, it is an additive power that reduced the SNR at the receiver.– Jammer power and distance matter. – Communication system “link margin” is available to include
jamming signal power. This becomes the
• Jammer power usually dominates

allocation. – Allows a repeated pattern for
assignments.
