Abstract
This paper is devoted to an examination of the key features of spread-spectrum signaling in packet radio networks. The multiple-access capability, capture, and anti-multipath capability of spread spectrum are the principal topics, and the basic features of spread spectrum that enable it to provide these capabilities are illustrated. The interaction between the spread-spectrum signaling and the network protocols is discussed. Methods for performance evaluation are reviewed, and analytical results on the multiple-access capability of spread spectrum are presented.Keywords
