depicted in Figure 11(a) along with
its key features, including the en-
tire ISM band coverage, bit-level
hopping with a 1-ns hop period,
and data-driven dynamic random
channel selection scheme. At each
microsecond, the channel is se-
lected randomly based on the user
data bit stream using the on-chip
CS pseudorandom channel genera-
tor (CS-PRCG), and then the timeinterleaved BAW-based Tx system
hops to the selected unpredictable
carrier frequency.
For the measured bit-level FH spec-
trogram illustrated in Figure 11(b),
an example data packet is formed
as a 5-bit-long preamble represented
by only bit 1s and 10-bit-long data.
As with the data bits, preamble bits
are also transmitted on randomly
selected carrier frequencies with
1-ns hop periods. The current data
bit is utilized for deciding which of
the random channels should be used

for data transmission. In every hop
period, two randomly selected chan-
nels for bit 1 and bit 0 are designat-
ed. For instance, Ch31 is designated
for bit 0 and Ch14 for bit 1 in the
first 1-ns hop period; since the first

bit is a preamble bit of 1, the Tx hops
to 2.414 GHz (Ch14). The next bit, an-
other preamble bit of 1, determines
the next carrier frequency of 2.437 GHz,
Ch37, as highlighted in the top part
of Figure 11(b). In addition, the use
