In this paper, we investigate the use of chirp spread spectrum signaling over air-ground channels. This includes evaluation of not only the traditional linear chirp, but also of a new chirp signal format we have devised for multiple access applications. This new format is more practical than prior multi-user chirp systems in the literature, because we allow for imperfect synchronism. Specifically we evaluate multi-user chirp signaling over air-ground channels in a quasi-synchronous condition. The air-ground channels we employ are models based upon an extensive NASA measurement campaign. We show that our new signaling scheme outperforms the classic linear chirp in these air-ground settings.

Multi user orthogonal chirp spread spectrum (OCSS) can improve the spectral inefficiency of chirp spread spectrum (CSS) but is only feasible with perfect synchronism and without any channel dispersion. Asynchronism, channel dispersion, or unexpectedly large Doppler shifts can cause multiple access interference (MAI), which degrades performance. Conditions with small timing offsets we term quasi-synchronous (QS). In this paper, we propose two new sets of nonlinear chirps to improve CSS system performance in QS conditions. We analytically and numerically evaluate cross-correlation distributions. We also derive the bit error probability for Binary CSS analytically and validate our theoretical result with both numerical and simulation results; our error probability expression is applicable to any binary time-frequency (TF) chirp waveform. Finally, we show that in QS conditions our two new nonlinear chirp designs outperform the classical linear chirp and all existing nonlinear chirps from the literature. To complete our analysis, we demonstrate that our nonlinear CSS designs outperform existing chirps in two realistic (empirically modeled) dispersive air to ground channels.
In this study, we propose a framework for chirp-based communications by exploiting discrete Fourier transform-spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-s-OFDM). We show that a well-designed frequency-domain spectral shaping (FDSS) filter for DFT-s-OFDM can convert its single-carrier nature to a linear combination of chirps circularly translated in the time domain. Also, by exploiting the properties of the Fourier series and Bessel function of the first kind, we analytically obtain the FDSS filter for an arbitrary chirp. We theoretically show that the chirps with low ripples in the frequency domain result in a lower bit-error ratio (BER) via less noise enhancement. We also address the noise enhancement by exploiting the repetitions in the frequency. The proposed framework offers a new way to efficiently synthesize chirps that can be used in Internet-of-Things (IoT), dual-function radar and communication (DFRC) or wireless sensing applications with existing DFT-s-OFDM transceivers.
In this paper, we investigate multi user chirp spread spectrum with noncoherent detection as a continuation of our work on coherent detection in [1]. We derive the analytical bit error ratio (BER) expression for binary chirp spread spectrum (BCSS) in the presence of multiple access interference (MAI) caused by correlation with other user signals because of either asynchronism or Doppler shifts, or both, and validate with simulations. To achieve this we analyze the signal cross correlations, and compare traditional linear chirps with our recently-proposed nonlinear chirps introduced in [1] and with other nonlinear chirps from the literature. In doing so we illustrate the superior performance of our new nonlinear chirp designs in these practical conditions, for the noncoherent counterpart of [1].
Spectrum monitoring and interference detection are crucial for the satellite service performance and the revenue of SatCom operators. Interference is one of the major causes of service degradation and deficient operational efficiency. Moreover, the satellite spectrum is becoming more crowded, as more satellites are being launched for different applications. This increases the risk of interference, which causes anomalies in the received signal, and mandates the adoption of techniques that can enable the automatic and real-time detection of such anomalies as a first step towards interference mitigation and suppression. In this paper, we present a Machine Learning (ML)-based approach able to guarantee a real-time and automatic detection of both short-term and long-term interference in the spectrum of the received signal at the base station. The proposed approach can localize the interference both in time and in frequency and is universally applicable across a discrete set of different signal spectra. We present experimental results obtained by applying our method to real spectrum data from the Swedish Space Corporation. We also compare our ML-based approach to a model-based approach applied to the same spectrum data and used as a realistic baseline. Experimental results show that our method is a more reliable interference detector.
