ABSTRACT:
A method for performing an acquisition to a code-modulated spread spectrum signal comprises receiving the transmitted signal, sampling the received signal to form samples, forming at least one reference code corresponding to a code used in the modulation and forming a non-coherent search matrix on the basis of said samples. The non-coherent search matrix comprises elements in at least a first and a second dimension. The first dimension of the non-coherent search matrix represents the same frequency deviation but different code phases of the received signal, and the second dimension of the non-coherent search matrix represents the same code phase but different frequency deviations of the received signal. Each element is addressable in the first dimension by a first index and in the second dimension by a second index.
