Abstract

Utilization of wireless miniaturized electronic systems in medical diagnosis, environmental monitoring and other industrial applications has been made possible by emergence of system-on-chip technology. An important task in such a system is to convey information reliably on a multiple access based environment. Communication systems targeting miniaturized sensor networks are also characterized by their restricted power and area constraints. We describe a communication system based on direct sequence code division multiple access method.
