Self similar sequences: Spread spectrum application in the WLAN

In this paper, we propose the QSSS (Quasicrystal Spread Spectrum Signal) algorithm, which is based on self-similar sequences obtained of the structure of one dimensional quasicrystal. QSSS is proposed as a protection of the information on the communication channels of the Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN), due to its useful features to reach confidenciality and sinchronization between wireless stations. In present-day WLAN are used the Barker sequences, which have ideal features to sinchronization process. QSSS is applied to spread spectrum at the data source and it is based in the direct sequence method however, a self-similar sequence is used instead of a Barker one.
