Abstract

A wireless product for wireless communication is constructed for spread spectrum operation within a required channel bandwidth where an RF signal for transmission in the channel is divided into sub-channels, each of which is less than the minimum channel bandwidth permitted by FCC regulations in order to realize improved transmission characteristics and greater flexibility in transmission timing and synchronization. The wireless product includes a controller for controlling system operation. During operation, the RF signal portion is less than the minimum channel bandwidth required by said regulations thus dividing the channel bandwidth to form N sub-channels, and setting the bandwidth of the RF signal to be substantially equal to the sub-channel bandwidth. The RF signal portion being transmitted in each of the N sub-channels.
