Question A-005-009-010

Why are received spread-spectrum signals so resistant to interference?

Correct Answer

Signals not using the spectrum-spreading algorithm are suppressed in the receiver

Explanation

The despreading process in a spread spectrum receiver correlates the received signal with the known pseudorandom code. This concentrates the desired signal's energy while spreading out and thus attenuating narrowband interference.
