The spread spectrum is a type of modulation where modulated signal BW is much larger than the baseband signal BW i.e. spread spectrum is a wide band scheme. A special code (pseudo noise) is used for spectrum spreading and the same code is to be used to despread the signal at the receiver.

Why spread spectrum is used in communication?
The main advantage of spread spectrum communication technique is to prevent “interference” whether it is intentional or unintentional. The signals modulated with these techniques are hard to interfere and cannot be jammed. An intruder with no official access is never allowed to crack them.
What is spread spectrum What are its advantages?
What Is the Spread Spectrum Technique? In the spread spectrum technique, the frequency of the signal to be transmitted is varied by injecting pseudo-random noises into it. This injection increases the bandwidth of signal transmission, and thereby reduces the effects of interference, noise, and signal fading.
What is spread spectrum and give the two types of spread spectrum?
There are two predominant techniques to spread the spectrum: 1) Frequency hoping (FH), which makes the narrow band signal jump in random narrow bands within a larger bandwidth. 2) Direct sequence (DS) which introduces rapid phase transition to the data to make it larger in bandwidth.
