VLSI implementation of a signal recognition and code acquisition algorithm for CDMA packet receivers.

The widespread application of direct-sequence spread-spectrum code division multiple access (DS/SS-CDMA) to wireless communication systems asks for ever faster and more reliable real-time signal processing operations to be performed by highly integrated and low-power consumption digital receivers. O...
