I can see a lot of reasons, but it's an answer requiring lots of thought. I'm not certain that it'd be an advantage. Some things that come to mind are:
1. non-gaussian interferers would be reduced by the spread processing gain. (Yay!) 2. With a long enough code you can discriminate against multipath (skywave.) as well as Loran - really limiting diurnal shift. 3. With a high chip rate you can potentially get really fine time resolution. 4. Most of the processing goes right to bits - Moore's law becomes our buddy. -- mailto:o...@ozindfw.net Oz POB 93167 Southlake, TX 76092 (Near DFW Airport) _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
