How are bits transmitted using DSSS? Include the chipping code in your answer.

What will be an ideal response?


DSSS uses an expanded redundant code to transmit each data bit and then a modulation technique such as quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK). This means that a DSSS signal is effectively modulated twice. Instead of simply encoding these two bits over a carrier wave for transmission, the value of each data bit is first added to each individual 1 and 0 in a sequence of binary digits called a Barker code. A Barker code (or chipping code) is a particular sequence of 1s and 0s that has properties that make it ideal for modulating radio waves as well as for being detected correctly by the receiver. These 1s and 0s are called chips instead of bits to avoid confusing them with the actual data bits. The chipping code is sometimes called a pseudorandom code because it is usually derived through a number of mathematical calculations as well as through practical experimentation.
