ABSTRACT:
A carrier frequency corrector for a receiver for use in a direct sequence code division multiple access communication system having a carrier frequency consisting of an expected carrier frequency and a carrier frequency error, modulated by a pseudo-noise code. A local frequency source provides a local frequency approximately equal to equal to the expected carrier frequency. A demodulator provides complex demodulated received signals stripped of the pseudo-noise code and mixed with the local frequency source. Each of the demodulated signals consists of in-phase signal components and quadrature signal components and the carrier frequency error. A sampler is coupled to the demodulator and converts the demodulated signal components to digital samples. A digital signal processor is coupled to the sampler and multiplies each signal component sample by stored digitized samples of a plurality of closely spaced sinusoidal tones to provide a product corresponding to each tone. The processor squares each product and compares the squared products to determine which tone provides the maximum value. That tone corresponds to the carrier frequency error. An adjuster between the digital signal processor and the local frequency source adjusts the local frequency source to compensate for the carrier frequency error for providing a local frequency equal to the received carrier frequency.
