Narrow-band versus spread-spectrum transmission

1.2 Frequency Hopping versus Direct Sequence
The two primary approaches to spread spectrum are direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) and
frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS), either of which can generally be adapted to a given applica-
tion. Direct sequence spread spectrum is produced by multiplying the transmitted data stream by a much
faster, noise-like repeating pattern. The ratio by which this modulating pattern exceeds the bit rate of the
base-band data is called the processing gain, and is equal to the amount of rejection the system affords
against narrow-band interference from multipath and jammers. Transmitting the data signal as usual, but
varying the carrier frequency rapidly according to a pseudo-random pattern over a broad range of chan-
nels produces a frequency hopping spread spectrum system.
