Abstract

See full text

Methods and architectures for code phase searching spread spectrum signals having a repeating sequence of bits. The signals are searched virtually in parallel by segmenting with a divider (314) received signals by sequentially, partially correlating signal segments with a corresponding replica signal segments for a predetermined number of phase delays during a time interval not greater than that required to form the next signal segment. Multiplexors (322) and (330) provide Doppler and replica signal segments data from Doppler signal and replica signal generators (318) and (320) to corresponding multipliers (326) and (332), respectively, for multiplication with corresponding signal segments in a segment register (316). The partial correlation results for each phase delay and at each Doppler frequency are stored in corresponding memory locations in a coherent accumulation RAM (334). The signals may be searched over one or more phase delays and at one or more Doppler frequencies.
