Spread Spectrum Communication Systems
Course Description:
Introduces the fundamental concepts of spread spectrum communication systems. Studies the basic theory of direct sequence (PN) and frequency hopping (FH) spread spectrum techniques. Topics include direct sequence code generation, acquisition, and tracking; and phase and Doppler tracking. Emphasis is on the performance of uncoded and coded spread spectrum communications in the presence of interference, jamming, and fading environments. Considers the low probability of interception/detection (LPI/LPD) characteristics of spread spectrum techniques in multiuser communication systems. Presents various practical applications of spread spectrum including IEEE 802.11b, HomeRF, and Bluetooth.
