ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for providing a reference pseudo-noise ("PN") sequence, and for providing a secondary PN sequence shifted with respect to the reference PN sequence by a number of chips that can be sequentially shifted. The apparatus includes a first pseudo-noise sequence generator ("PNSG"), the PNSG generating the reference PN code, having N stages, each stage being at one of two states, and having a feedback loop from the output of the PNSG, the value on the feedback loop being stored in each stage 1, 2, 3, . . . N, after being multiplied by a constant associated with the stage, C1, C2, C3, . . . CN, respectively, and the result added to the value in the previous stage, with "0" being deemed to be the value in the stage previous to the first stage, and then stored in the stage. Also provided is a mask generator/shifter comprising a second PNSG having N stages, wherein the N stages of the second PNSG may be loaded with a shift-and-add mask, M=m.sub.1, m.sub.2, . . . m.sub.N-1, m.sub.N. A plurality of N logical AND steps are provided, each logical AND step being connected to multiply the states of the corresponding stage of the first PNSG and of the second PNSG. Finally, a plurality of logical XOR steps is provided, connected to add the results of all of the N logical AND steps to provide the secondary PN sequence.
