Frequency Hopping

• In frequency hopping systems, the carrier frequency of the transmitter abruptly changes (or hops) in accordance with a pseudo random code sequence. The order of frequencies selected by the transmitter is dictated by the code sequence. The receiver tracks these changes and produces a constant IF signal.

• Examples of radios that use Frequency Hopping: SINCGARS, HAVEQUICK, Link-16
