Is the random or pseudo-random manner of generating the tones or carriers an essential element of spread-spectrum? If so, and if the aim of using such a method is not to obfuscate the message but only to provide better immunity to interference and path variations, would you be any worse off using a repeated pattern of tones instead of a pseudo-randomly generated one? And if you did that, would it still be spread-spectrum?

Re: [digitalradio] Re: Question for experts
The difference between spread spectrum and other systems is the pseudo-random generating of the frequencies and not frequencies determined by the data. It was originally done to prevent decoding without the synchronization code. It is only disallowed under FCC regulations on that basis. SSB also uses frequency spreading as has already been noted, but the frequencies are determined by the code. That is why there is no reason not to allow ROS except that technically the frequencies are independently determined by pseudo-random code generator. Modify the regulations to limit the bandwidth and require third-party monitoring and ROS would be legal, but as the regulations stand, rightly or wrongly, we are required to abide by them. The petition process with public comment prevents harmful emissions from being used. Glad we are at the point you wanted to make. I have spent much to much time on this FHSS vs regulations issue, so I have to go on to something else now.

[digitalradio] Content vs Mode Re: 1976 FCC - Delete all Emission Types from Part 97
Mode is not equivalent to emission type, Phone is not a mode. Phone is not an emission type. Content is what the emission contains or what is carried by the emission. Content can often be part of the emission type, but not always. Sub-bands are demarcated primarily by content, not substantially by mode or bandwidth. Bandwidth has very little to do with the demarcation of HF sub-bands. A mode, such as AM or FSK or FM can easily contain or carry voice or image or text or data as its content... even simultaneously! However, the FCC rules demarcate the sub-bands by content, so ye shalt not allow any text to be contained in your AM or FSK or FM mode transmission while in the phone/image sub-band (with few exceptions).

Re: [digitalradio] Re: Question for experts
Julian, By definition, it is SS if the pattern is independently generated from the data. The original intent of FHSS was to make third-party decoding impossible without knowledge of the code that generated the tones or carriers. FCC rules disallow encryption because we are required to police the bands ourselves. As long as there is not a pattern to the frequencies generated, that is independent of the data, one of the necessary and sufficient conditions to qualify as FHSS is missing. However, in the case of ROS, the repeated pattern is not there, so, until the regulations are changed, ROS is illegal FHSS, even though the spreading is limited and capable of third-party monitoring. That is a result of a historical attempt to prevent encryption, but this can probably be changed through the petition process with public comment. Until then, hams in the US have no choice but to abide by the regulations as written. In the author's own words, three necessary and sufficient elements make it SS, and a search of the literature says the same: 1. The signal occupies a bandwidth much in excess of the minimum bandwidth necessary to send the information. 2. Spreading is accomplished by means of a spreading signal, often called a code signal, which is independent of the data. 3. At the receiver, despreading (recovering the original data) is accomplished by the correlation of the received spread signal with a synchronized replica of the spreading signal used to spread the information. The operative phase here is independent of the data. It is just unfortunate that the FCC regulations, as currently written, do not allow ROS on HF and that they really need to be updated. Note that SS is already permittted above 222 MHz, where there is plenty of space to use for spreading that does not exist on HF. In fact, the encryption aspect is not even mentioned, except in other parts of the regulations disallowing encryption. The regulations were obviously written to prevent extremely wide SS signals from interfering with other users. Since ROS is no wider than a phone signal, there is no reason the regulations should not be modified to allow it (perhaps with other necessary limitations), but until then, and right now, ROS is illegal below 222 Mhz. It is that simple! Compare the repeated pattern of MFSK64 to the random pattern of ROS as data is applied. Substituting a 2- page technical description which is COMPLETELY different from the 7-page description of ROS as FHSS in an obvious attempt to circumvent FCC regulations is simply not believable, as an apparent twisting of the FCC's statement of illegality was apparently not true either. Which version is to be believed? Well, we don't need to decide that, and you apparently cannot believe anything the author claims since he keeps claiming something else! Anyone, including the FCC, can simply observe the differences in the spectral footprint of each, which is plainly shown here in a comparison of MFSK64 and ROS 1 baud at 2200 Hz width: http://home.comcast.net/~hteller/compare.zip Note how the repetitive sending of data () does not result in any repetitive pattern on ROS, but it does in MFSK64, and MFSK64 idles with a repeated pattern, but ROS does not. The ROS tones are obviously not determined by the data and are also pseudo-randomly generated - definitely FHSS. The FCC regulations describe permitted and not permitted (i.e. SS and others) emissions. They could care less about what a mode is called or how it is described by someone, because in the final analysis, we are required to maintain our EMISSIONS per the regulations, or have the regulations changed through the petition and public comment process. Had the author not tried so hard to convince everyone that ROS was Spread Spectrum, this debate would probably never have occurred. It was the term, Spread Spectrum that raised red flags among US hams who are knowledgeable of the regulations we operate under, and they were right in realizing that, as a result, ROS is illegal on HF unless the regulations are changed. The FCC then confirmed that through the ARRL. 73 - Skip KH6TY g4ilo wrote: Is the random or pseudo-random manner of generating the tones or carriers an essential element of spread-spectrum?

Re: [digitalradio] Re: Question for experts
He did, I guess, when he added a 500Hz-wide mode. The footprint of that mode indicates it is probably FSK as he tried to claim for the 2200 Hz-wide mode. He says he submitted a technical description to the FCC but will not release it until he gets an OK. Don't know what to believe from him these days, though! A further problem is the the new mode is included under the ROS name, and the 2200Hz-wide mode still looks like spread spectrum, unchanged from earlier. So if the FCC approves ROS on the basis of the new 500 Hz-wide mode, operators may think the 2200Hz-wide mode is now legal also. Still not a good situation! 73 - Skip KH6TY g4ilo wrote: Skip.

Re: [digitalradio] Re: Question for experts
Jose, If you were going to design a mode that filled 2200 Hz, but did not use SS, and was as sensitive as possible in that bandwidth, how would you do it? It would have to be highly resistant to fast Doppler shift also, but minimum S/N would be the most important parameter, as it would be used at UHF. So far, Olivia 16-500 seems to be the best compromise between minimum S/N and Doppler shift survival at UHF. The more narrow Olivia modes, even though more sensitive, do not decode as well if there is noticeable fast Doppler shift, and sometimes, not at all. DominoEx is completely destroyed by the Doppler shift and MFSK16 is not tolerant enough to drift to be usable at UHF. MT63-2000 covers 2000 Hz, has highly redundant FEC, but the minimum S/N is only -2 dB, so that is not an alternative. What I am looking for is a mode that will copy under the visible and audible noise on UHF during deep fades, but survives fast Doppler shift. Olivia 16-500 makes it down to the noise, but not under, during deep fades. CW by ear is just slightly better than Olivia 16-500, and the note is very raspy sounding - much like Aurora communications. Another observation - most stations I copy on ROS 16 are reading a metric of -12 dB or greater. Only once have I copied a station (using 1 baud ROS) that was measuring a metric under -25 dB. Is the ROS metric supposed to correlate with the path S/N? I ask this because even the weakest ROS tones at 1 baud are still visible on the waterfall, whereas weak Olivia 32-1000 signals with a -12 dB minimum S/N stop decoding just about the time the tones become hard to see in the noise, but still can be heard faintly. It is a long way from even -25 dB S/N to -12 dB S/N, so I would expect if the metric is just another way to say S/N, I would not be able to see the tones, yet I can, and not only on the ROS waterfall, but on the DigiPan waterfall as well. 73 - Skip KH6TY Jose A.

There is a paper by Tim Giles about multitone modems for high latitude HF paths (PhD publication in Sweden) and he avoided sending in contiguous bins in wide Doppler spread conditions, and reassigned contiguous bins on the side to have a wider hat to catch the path shifted tones. That sacrifices thruput, but nevertheless, it is worthless to push nature. In that case, it is better to become its ally, and to me, wider spaced tones and reusing contiguous bins seems a good idea. I read it a long time ago and maybe I am not remembering all details, but it was interesting enough so I haven't lost the big picture.

All that is required is to make available upon demand the code sequence. You don't have to offer a decoder, nor do OO's have to be able to monitor it, etc. Just make the code sequence available upon request. However, in the case of ROS, the repeated pattern is not there, so, until the regulations are changed, ROS is illegal FHSS, even though the spreading is limited and capable of third-party monitoring. Sorry, this is overly simplistic. Many US legal codec/modems do not meet this test. ROS may or may not be legal, but it's not your repeated test definition that makes it so. The most legit issue that technically makes it SS is that a single data bit is sliced into smaller bits when sent. IE: the code rate is much greater than the data rate. (which directly correlates with spreading factor as well). That is a result of a historical attempt to prevent encryption, but this can probably be changed through the petition process with public comment. Until then, hams in the US have no choice but to abide by the regulations as written. First hand experience: It does not take petition with public comment. Just professional dialog with the FCC, and a willingness to provide details on the encoding sequence if requested. In the author's own words, three necessary and sufficient elements make it SS, and a search of the literature says the same: 1. The signal occupies a bandwidth much in excess of the minimum bandwidth necessary to send the information. 2. Spreading is accomplished by means of a spreading signal, often called a code signal, which is independent of the data. 3. At the receiver, despreading (recovering the original data) is accomplished by the correlation of the received spread signal with a synchronized replica of the spreading signal used to spread the information. This is close to, but not exactly the ITU (and thus US Federal) definition of SS. But I agree with you, ROS by the author's description met the legal definition of SS. But the real question is, should it be treated the same as traditional SS which normally uses a much larger (100x or more) spreading factor and thus would negatively impact an entire HF amateur allocation. The operative phase here is independent of the data. So how bout randomizers used to maximize average power? (used reduce crest factor). Viterbi encoders? It is just unfortunate that the FCC regulations, as currently written, do not allow ROS on HF and that they really need to be updated. Note that SS is already permittted above 222 MHz, where there is plenty of space to use for spreading that does not exist on HF. In fact, the encryption aspect is not even mentioned, except in other parts of the regulations disallowing encryption. The regulations were obviously written to prevent extremely wide SS signals from interfering with other users. Since ROS is no wider than a phone signal, there is no reason the regulations should not be modified to allow it (perhaps with other necessary limitations), but until then, and right now, ROS is illegal below 222 Mhz. It is that simple! Compare the repeated pattern of MFSK64 to the random pattern of ROS as data is applied. Invalid test. Do the same with P3 with compression turned on. I understand what you are trying to do, and agree with some points. But also see a very simplistic approach to SS tests that will ultimately do us a dis-service. Have fun, Alan km4ba

Amador wrote: It does not mean that SS is not a predictable modulation method, you just need to know the key, in the USA, the key must be one of a few specific codes, and if you don't have the key, security by obscurity applies. And the FCC does not consider a code used to create modulation patterns as encryption as long as that code is available for review upon demand. Not the program code itself, but the algorithm. I have stashed away somewhere a copy of the document used for that exact exercise in the mid-80's with the FCC. This could be a convolutional code as used in several modems, or a randomizer, or even one to improve decoding (viterbi). Another example: One of the gripes about P3 is that it is difficult to monitor. But that does not make it illegal, as the code algorythm has been published. Not the trade secret codecs themselves, just the method. And that's all that's required. Have fun, Alan km4ba
Re: [digitalradio] SS definitions
Alan, though we may disagree as to the amount or nature of FHSS in ROS, the bottom line is that the FCC engineers, as well as the ARRL engineers, reviewed both the documentation and the signal footprint, and have concluded it is FHSS. While their opinion might be changed through dialog, that is unlikely at this point, so the most sure approach is just to agree it is FHSS and petition for a variance with necessary limitations. It is highly unlikely that the FCC will reverse their decision, especially since the author, whom the FCC expected to tell the truth, wrote a 9-page paper claiming it was FHSS, titles, INTRODUCTION TO ROS: THE SPREAD SPECTRUM. To try to re-characterize it as something else in order to get approval puts the credibility of the author in serious doubt, especially after the fiasco over the posting of an FCC announcement that it was legal that the FCC claims they did not make. Admit it is FHSS, but petition for a variance or modification of the rules to allow it on the basis that it is not harmful to other modes, and that will probably be granted. It is too late, and too much dirty water has passed under the bridge, to even imagine that any other way can be successful. I think we have beat this horse to death at this point and should move on to another topic. 73 - Skip KH6TY Alan Barrow wrote: I'll preface this by saying that I'm not trying to defend or crucify ROS.

Re: [digitalradio] SS definitions
Engineers that work for the FCC, of course. Their names are not ordinarily revealed and the mouthpiece of the FCC is a customer service agent (and for some amateur matters, the ARRL, who relays information from the FCC offices). This structure should be fairly obvious to anyone with experience in business. Trevor, Ask Toyota for the names of the engineers investigating the unexpected acceleration and I doubt that you will get an answer! Ask the President who is responsible for reports from the White House and you will only find out through a legal action. I am sure these walls are set up to protect employees from frivolous attacks. However, there is a Freedom of Information Act that can be invoked through legal action to obtain some internal documents of the government, but they are generally not offered to the public without a court order, for obvious reasons. The FCC customer service agent is the person who relays decisions to the public, and that agent probably does not make the decisions personally or without consultation. This is analogous to the Press Secretary of the White House. If you want to verify the originator of a decision, you have a right to do so through the appropriate legal process. The FCC's customer service agent has relayed a FCC decision to reaffirm that ROS is indeed FHSS and that, under current rules, as docemented in Part 97, SS is only allowed above 222 MHz. That is generally the way it works on this side of the pond, and we have no choice but to abide by the system or petition for change. 73 - Skip KH6TY Trevor . wrote: --- On Wed, 10/3/10, KH6TY kh...@comcast.net mailto:kh6ty%40comcast.net wrote: Alan, though we may disagree as to the amount or nature of FHSS in ROS, the bottom line is that the FCC engineers, as well as the ARRL engineers, reviewed both the documentation and the signal footprint, and have concluded it is FHSS.

Re: [digitalradio] SS definitions
Trevor, I might add that it is often the practice in this country for a higher court just to either reaffirm or remand a lower court decision, instead of issuing a differing decision itself. I am sure that the FCC, as a government body, also adheres to this practice. That is why the original decision of the FCC, as originally related by the customer service agent, simply reaffirms the original finding. The official word from the FCC, through one of their spokesmen, is that ROS is spread spectrum and that will stand until modified by the petition process. 73 - Skip KH6TY Trevor . wrote: --- On Wed, 10/3/10, KH6TY kh...@comcast.net mailto:kh6ty%40comcast.net wrote: Alan, though we may disagree as to the amount or nature of FHSS in ROS, the bottom line is that the FCC engineers, as well as the ARRL engineers, reviewed both the documentation and the signal footprint, and have concluded it is FHSS.

[digitalradio] Re: SS definitions (here are the ITU, NITA, and Fed Std)
Well ROS is going to ruin digital operation if it catches on. It has already ruined Olivia on 20m. Just one transmission using this selfish wideband mode wipes out three frequencies that were used by Olivia. It is causing interference to packet networks as well. And, if the number of members of the ROS Yahoo group is anything to go by, there are currently only around 124 users. That's a lot of disruption being caused by very few people. I don't care whether it is spread spectrum or not. You cannot accommodate a reasonable number of users each requiring a 2.2kHz clear channel within the current allocation for digital modes. That is the only reason for my objection to it. I do not see the point in experimenting with a mode that requires more spectrum space than exists to accommodate the expected number of users. If it is a success, and everyone wants to use it, then there will not be enough frequencies for them and it will be chaos. So we all have to hope it is a failure, otherwise it will be impossible for any of us to use anything else, except possibly PSK31 which uses little enough space that hopefully the ROSers can be persuaded to keep clear of it. I am not against new modes but surely they should be developed taking account of the circumstances that they will be used under. It doesn't seem too likely to me that someone who was an experienced HF digital operator would consider developing a mode for HF use that required a 2.2kHz channel because they would understand that it isn't practical. It really doesn't matter what the possible benefits are if it is impossible for more than a handful of people to use it.
