ABSTRACT:
A method and system for fast acquisition of pulsed radio signals where said signals comprised uniquely-spaced pulses or symbols. The receiver searches for and detects two ore more symbols, determines the interval or intervals between the symbols, and because the intervals are unique, the symbols or symbol sequences are identified. Identification of the symbols and their respective timing within the signal allows the receiver to adjust its timing to synchronize with the full signal.
