❑ Composed signals transferred into frequency domain using Fourier
transformation
❑ Digital signals need
❑ infinite frequencies for perfect transmission
❑ modulation with a carrier frequency for transmission (analog signal!)

DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum)
I
XOR of the signal with pseudo-random number (chipping sequence)
❑ many chips per bit (e.g., 128) result in higher bandwidth of the signal
Advantages
❑ reduces frequency selective tb
