Receiving binary coded spread spectrum signals

In the past few years, the use of spread-spectrum coded signals ceased to be the job of a limited group of specialists. Substantially more workers will be interested in applications of this part of the information theory and practice in the near future [29]. There is no need to present here the motives for the practical use of spread-spectrum coded signals. They are elucidated with details e.g. in [8], [13], [24], [28]. The matter of the article is treated heuristically to give a brief survey of basic problems and solutions to readers with no prior knowledge, and a balanced sample of pertaining articles has been collected for more serious study.
