  2. Spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spread_spectrum

    The core principle of spread spectrum is the use of noise-like carrier waves, and, as the name implies, bandwidths much wider than that required for simple point-to-point communication at the same data rate. Resistance to jamming (interference). Direct sequence (DS) is good at resisting continuous-time narrowband jamming, while frequency ...

  3. Direct-sequence spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-sequence_spread...

    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 ...

  4. Data communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_communication

    Data communication, including data transmission and data reception, is the transfer of data, transmitted and received over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires , optical fibers , wireless communication using radio spectrum , storage media and computer buses .

  5. Chip (CDMA) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_(CDMA)

    Orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) is an implementation of code-division multiple access (CDMA) where before each signal is transmitted, the signal is spread over a wide spectrum range through the use of a user's code. Users' codes are carefully chosen to be mutually orthogonal to each other.

  6. Dissemination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissemination

    With dissemination, only half of this communication model theory is applied. The information is sent out and received, but no reply is given. The message carrier sends out information, not to one individual, but many in a broadcasting system. An example of this transmission of information is in fields of advertising, public announcements and ...

  7. Communication physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_physics

    Communication physics aims to study and explain how a communication system works. This can be applied in a hard science way via Computer Communication or in the way of how people communicate. [1] An example of communication physics is how computers can transmit and receive data through networks.

  8. Broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcasting

    Broadcasting is the distribution of audio or electronic mass communications medium, but typically one using the electromagnetic spectrum (radio waves), in a one-to-many model. [1] Broadcasting began with AM radio, which came into popular use around 1920 with the spread of vacuum tube radio transmitters and receivers.

  9. Telecommunications network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_network

    A telecommunications network is a group of nodes interconnected by telecommunications links that are used to exchange messages between the nodes. The links may use a variety of technologies based on the methodologies of circuit switching, message switching, or packet switching, to pass messages and signals.
