A Practical Circuit of Cyclic Chirp Spread Spectrum Modulation for Long Range Communication

Abstract

Various technologies have been utilized in long range communication to satisfy increasing usage of the internet of things in a wide large area. Recently, a modulating technique called cyclic chirp spread spectrum (CSS) modulation has attracted attention due to its low power usage and long-range coverage. However, a cyclic CSS circuit is complex to build. Hence, the objective of the work is to propose a practical circuit of cyclic CSS modulation. The proposed circuit is designed to complicated-free creation. To prove that the presented circuit is pragmatic, a simulation test is performed. The simulation results have illustrated that the designed circuit well generates a chirp modulating signal. Also, the proposed circuit is flexibly configurable.
