Complementary Code Keying with PIC based microcontrollers for The Wireless Radio Communications
Common problems with digital Radio Communications • Interference from other radio communication devices • Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) solve this problem • Interference from multipath signals • Complementary Code Keying (CCK) solve this problem
CCK modulator • CCK uses one of 64 nearly orthogonal vectors to generate spreading code word • Implementation is based on PIC16F84
Code word generation • “C” is the code word with LSB first to MSB last • CCK codeword has 4 phase terms. One of them modulates all of the chips (1) and this is used for the QPSK rotation of the whole code vector. The 3 others modulate every odd chip (2), every odd pair of chips (3) and every odd quad of chips (4) respectively
QPSK modulator LEGEND: • 1 & 2 - balanced mixers • 3 - phase splitter • 4 - carrier oscillator • 5 - coupler • 6 - band-pass filter • 7 - power amplifier • 8 - antenna QPSK modulator allows transmitting of two independent channels (I and Q) at the same time
Phase splitter • Low cost design • Constant phase difference among wide working frequency drift • Better performance up to few hundred MHz • For higher frequency (UHF bands) can be used micro strip lines with length equal to /4
Conclusions • Improve performance for general multipath environments in radio transmission • Transmitter’s part of the CCK transceiver is a low cost effective, but the receiver’s part is more complex • The CCK waveform has better Eb/N0 performance than DPSK • DSSS with use of Barker’s code is more stable according to the longrange and distance between transmitter and receiver in comparison with CCK
