Abstract:
In an adaptive CDMA receiver (20), a DS-SS received signal and a reference signal are equalized by minimizing the error between them. The received signal includes a desired DS-SS communication signal comprising binary bits coded with spreading chip sequences. The received signal is sampled at a chip rate to produce sampled received signals which are correlated with each other. The received samples are de-correlated by employing an orthogonal transformation algorithm to provide de-correlated elements corresponding to the received samples. The equalization process is accelerated by minimizing the error based on the de-correlated elements.
Abstract:
In a CDMA communication system (100) capable of communicating between a receiver (20) and a transmitter (10) direct sequence spread spectrum communication signals (30), a system and method for synchronizing receiver bit timing and transmitter timing. Transmitter (10) transmits a training bit sequence (31) followed by a transmitter bit timing sequence (33). The receiver (20) adaptively determines a representation of a despreading chip sequence using a tapped delay line equalizer (400). Receiver bit timing offset is determined based on the representation of the despreading chip sequence and the transmitter bit timing sequence (33).
