Originally adopted in military networks for its resistance to jamming and interception, spread-spectrum communication systems are now central to commercial applications such as mobile, cellular, and satellite communication. This book offers a concise yet rigorous explanation and derivation of the fundamental principles underlying spread-spectrum techniques. It is designed for graduate students and practicing engineers with a strong foundation in digital communications, focusing on theory rather than system specifics. Topics include direct-sequence and frequency-hopping systems, synchronization, diversity and fading, CDMA, and detection methods. Four mathematical appendices support the main text.
