In [[telecommunicationtelecommunications]]s, '''direct-sequence spread spectrum''' ('''DSSS''') is a [[spread-spectrum]] [[modulation]] technique primarily used to reduce overall signal [[Interference (communication)|interference]]. The direct-sequence modulation makes the transmitted signal wider in bandwidth than the information bandwidth.

After the despreading or removal of the direct-sequence modulation in the receiver, the information bandwidth is restored, while the unintentional and intentional interference is substantially reduced.<ref name="ref 1">{{cite book| title=Principles of Spread-Spectrum Communication Systems, 4th ed.| year=2018|last1=Torrieri|first1=Don}}</ref>
