Abstract

A receiver (900) employs a method (1100) for identifying a particular coded communication signal (301) from received coded communication signals (303, 305). The receiver (900) comprises a memory device (905) and a processor (907). The memory device (905) stores information contained in the received coded communication signals (303, 305) during multiple modulation symbol time intervals (210) to produce stored information. The processor (907) then searches the stored information to identify the particular coded communication signal (301).

Claims

29AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 18 January 1996 (18.01.96); original claims 1-10 replaced by amended claims 1-10 (5 pages)]
1 . In a receiver that receives a spread spectrum signal, a method for identifying a particular coded communication signal, the method comprising the steps of:
dividing the spread spectrum signal into a plurality of modulated time intervals; storing information contained in each of the plurality of modulated time intervals; determining a first correlation metric for each of the plurality of modulated time intervals at a first offset in time; and determining a second correlation metric for each of the plurality of modulated time intervals at a second offset in time.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising comparing each of the first and second correlation metrics to a threshold.
3. The method of claim 2, further comprising the steps of:
identifying a set of multipath signals of the particular coded communication signal; weighting each multipath signal in the set of multipath signals based on the correlation metrics to produce a set of weighted multipath signals; demodulating the set of weighted multipath signals to produce a set of demodulated multipath signals; and combining the set of demodulated multipath signals to recover the particular coded communication signal.
4. The method of claim 2, wherein the particular coded communication signal propagates through a complex channel prior to reception by the receiver.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first correlation metric comprises one of an energy and a magnitude measurement .
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising identifying the particular coded communication signal based on the correlation metrics.
7. In a receiver that receives direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) signals, each of the DS- CDMA signals including a plurality of Walsh symbols, a method for identifying a particular DS-CDMA signal from a plurality of received DS-CDMA signals, the method comprising the steps of:
