Abstract

A spread spectrum communications system for use over a communications channel, including a transmitter-generic-chip-code generator, a transmitter-message-chip-code generator, an EXCLUSIVE-OR gate, a combiner, a transmitter, a receiver-generic-chip-code generator, a receiver--generic mixer, a generic-bandpass filter, a receiver-message-chip-code generator, a receiver-message mixer, a message-bandpass filter, and a synchronous detector. The transmitter-generic-chip-code generator generates a generic-chip-code signal and the transmitter-message-chip-code generator generates a message-chip-code signal. The EXCLUSIVE-OR gate spread-spectrum processes message data with the message-chip-code signal to generate a spread-spectrum signal. The combiner combines the generic--chip-code signal with the spread-spectrum-processed signal. The transmitter transmits the combined generic-chip-code signal and spread-spectrum signal, on a carrier signal over the communications channel as a spread-spectrum--communications signal. The receiver-generic-chip-code generator generates a replica of the generic-chip-code signal. The generic mixer recovers the carrier signal from the spread-spectrum-communications signal. The receiver-message-chip-code generator generates a replica of the message--chip-code signal. The receiver-message mixer despreads the spread--spectrum-communications signal as a modulated-data signal. The tracking and acquisition circuit uses the recovered carrier signal for synchronizing the replicas of the generic-chip-code signal to the recovered carrier signal. The synchronous detector synchronously demodulates the modulated-data signal as received data.

Claims (8)

1. A method for receiving message data from a code division multiple access transmitter, the method comprising:
receiving a spread spectrum signal;
detecting a first signal within the spread spectrum signal, the first signal having each bit of a bit sequence combined with a plurality of chips;
recovering message data from a second signal within the spread spectrum signal, the second signal having each bit of the message data combined with a plurality of chips; wherein the recovering of the message data is synchronized to the detected first signal.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the first bit sequence is a code word.
3. The method of claim 1 comprising recovering second message data from a third signal within the spread spectrum signal, the third signal having each bit of the second message data combined with a plurality of chips, wherein the recovering of the second message data is synchronized to the detected first signal.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein the plurality of chips of the first signal are different than the plurality of chips of the second signal.
5. A receiver for receiving message data in a code division multiple access format, the receiver comprising:
an input that receives a spread spectrum signal;
a detector that detects a first signal within the spread spectrum signal, the first signal having each bit of a bit sequence combined with a plurality of chips;
a mixing device that recovers message data from a second signal within the spread spectrum signal, the second signal having each bit of the message data combined with a plurality of chips; wherein the recovering of the message data is synchronized to the detected first signal.
6. The receiver of claim 5 wherein the first bit sequence is a code word.
7. The receiver of claim 5 comprising a second mixing device that recovers second message data from a third signal within the spread spectrum signal, the third signal having each bit of the message data combined with a plurality of chips; wherein the recovering of the second message data is synchronized to the detected first signal.
8. The receiver of claim 5 wherein the plurality of chips of the first signal are different than the plurality of chips of the second signal.
