Technologies directed to hash spreading to extend a wireless coverage are described. One method includes receiving input bits and control information that specifies a first data rate and a second modem scheme having a second signal range that is greater than a first signal range corresponding to a first modem scheme. The method generates a first sequence of bits by scrambling the input bits, the first sequence of bits having a first number of bits. The method generates a second sequence of bits by hash spreading the first sequence of bits using a set of spreading codes. The second sequence of bits has a second number of bits greater than the first number of bits. The method generates first symbols by modulating the second sequence, converts the first symbols into radio frequency (RF) signals, and sends the RF signals to the second wireless device.

Long-range modem scheme

A device includes a substrate and a video processor on the substrate. A first patch antenna is mounted to the substrate and configured to transmit and receive radio frequency signals in a frequency range. The first patch antenna is closer to a first end of the substrate than a second end of the substrate. A second patch antenna is mounted to the substrate and is configured to transmit and receive radio frequency signals in the frequency range. The second patch antenna is closer to the first end of the substrate than the second end of the substrate. The substrate includes a ground isolation region between at least one of the first patch antenna and the second patch antenna and the video processor. A media connector is on the substrate and electrically connected to the video processor.
