ABSTRACT:
A spread-spectrum noise canceller (182) is provided. A received phase and a received amplitude for a first (216) and a second (236) component of a received spread-spectrum signal (200) is determined. The second component (236) is structurally similar to [a replica of] the first component (216), but differs by being received at a different time, being transmitted along a different path, or having a different phase [which was received at a different time]. In addition, the spread-spectrum signal (200) includes a first and a second known signal. A portion of a spread-spectrum noise signal in the received signal (200) is canceled by generating an estimated signal (270) by spreading (260) the second known signal at the second component received phase (204) with the first known signal at the first component received phase (224) and adjusting a gain (268) of an integrated form of the spread second known signal as a function of the received amplitudes of the first (216) and the second (236) components. Subsequently, the second known signal is processed out of the received spread-spectrum signal (200) by subtracting (166) the estimated signal (270) from a demodulated form (216, 236) of the received spread-spectrum signal (200).
