  2. Spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spread_spectrum

    Moreover, for a given noise power spectral density (PSD), spread-spectrum systems require the same amount of energy per bit before spreading as narrowband systems and therefore the same amount of power if the bitrate before spreading is the same, but since the signal power is spread over a large bandwidth, the signal PSD is much lower — often ...

  3. Frequency-hopping spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-hopping_spread...

    Frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) is a method of transmitting radio signals by rapidly changing the carrier frequency among many frequencies occupying a large spectral band. The changes are controlled by a code known to both transmitter and receiver .

  4. Direct-sequence spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Direct-sequence_spread_spectrum

    Direct-sequence spread-spectrum transmissions multiply the symbol sequence being transmitted with a spreading sequence that has a higher rate than the original message rate. Usually, sequences are chosen such that the resulting spectrum is spectrally white. Knowledge of the same sequence is used to reconstruct the original data at the receiving ...

    Mortimer Alan Rogoff (May 2, 1921 – August 1, 2008) was an American inventor, businessman, and author as well as an amateur photographer and radio operator. He is recognized for his work in spread spectrum technology which is the technology that modern cell phones and GPS systems are based on. He is also considered the grandfather of the ...

  6. Multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplexing

    Code-division multiplexing (CDM), code-division multiple access (CDMA) or spread spectrum is a class of techniques where several channels simultaneously share the same frequency spectrum, and this spectral bandwidth is much higher than the bit rate or symbol rate. One form is frequency hopping, another is direct sequence spread spectrum.

  7. Technology adoption life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_adoption_life_cycle

    In educational technology, Lindy McKeown has provided a similar model (a pencil metaphor [4]) describing the Information and Communications Technology uptake in education. In medical sociology, Carl May has proposed normalization process theory that shows how technologies become embedded and integrated in health care and other kinds of ...

  8. Chirp spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirp_spread_spectrum

    In digital communications, chirp spread spectrum (CSS) is a spread spectrum technique that uses wideband linear frequency modulated chirp pulses to encode information. [1] A chirp is a sinusoidal signal whose frequency increases or decreases over time (often with a polynomial expression for the relationship between time and frequency).

  9. Cordless telephone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cordless_telephone

    Newer Digital Spread Spectrum (DSS) variants spread their signal over a range of frequencies, providing more resistance to signal fade. This technology enabled the digital information to spread in pieces among several frequencies between the receiver and the base, thereby making it almost impossible to eavesdrop on the cordless conversation.
