+A popular code used in many DSSS systems are Gold codes. A set of Gold codes has small cross-correlations. For some
+value $n$ a set of Gold codes contains $2^n + 1$ sequences of length $2^n - 1$. Gold codes are generated from two
+different maximum length sequences generated by linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs). For any bit count $n$ there are
+certain empirically determined preferred pairs of LFSRs that produce Gold codes with especially good cross-correlation.
+The $2^n + 1$ gold codes are defined as the XOR sum of both LFSR sequences shifted from $0$ to $2^n-1$ bit as well as
+the two individual LFSR sequences. Given LFSR sequences \texttt{a} and \texttt{b} in numpy notation this is
+\mintinline{python}{[a, b] + [ a ^ np.roll(b, shift) for shift in len(b) ]}.
+
+In DSSS modulation the individual bits of the DSSS sequence are called \emph{chips}. Chip duration determines modulation
+bandwidth\cite{goiser01}. In our system we are directly modulating DSSS chips on mains frequency without an underlying
+modulation such as BPSK as it is commonly used in DSSS systems.
