Abstract

La présente invention concerne un réseau corrélateur et un procédé de fabrication associé. Le réseau corrélateur désétale des signaux d'accès multiple par répartition de code (CDMA) reçus par des antennes en parallèle avec un réseau additionneur composé de K/2 additionneurs complexes et les facteurs d'étalement des signaux CDMA sont divisés par deux à chaque itération. Comme le réseau corrélateur selon l'invention est un réseau parallèle, chaque itération peut être exécutée simultanément pour de multiples signaux CDMA ou sur le même symbole provenant d'utilisateurs différents ou de trajets différents et un réseau comprenant K/2 additionneurs n'a en moyenne besoin que de 2N/K périodes pour achever le désétalage d'un symbole CDMA ayant un facteur d'étalement N. De ce fait, le corrélateur selon la présente invention présente une vitesse élevée de traitement, ce qui assure une corrélation de désétalement à grande vitesse et améliore l'efficacité de la corrélation de désétalement.
