ABSTRACT:
Multiple transmitters transmit data signals using identical spreading codes. A single matched filter of a receiver receives all the signals. A broadcast timing control signal retards or advances timings of individual transmitters to offset the interleaved signals. A subtracting circuit subtracts first and strongest signals until a single signal remains, and then reinserts the subtracted signals in the receiver. The identical code spreading sequence used in all the transmitters and in the matched filter is selected from a specific class of codes known as maximum length shift register sequences in a length equal to 2 .sup.n -1 for integer values of n. The method provides multiple access to a data communications channel without prearranging times or querying availability, and with automatic offsetting of the identical form signals.
