ABSTRACT:
Synchronization of a frequency hopping transceiver to a network by embedding synchronization codes in the pseudo-random frequency hopping transmission sequence. A receiver is implemented with a frequency detector and a correlator to generate a correlator signal in response to the synchronization codes in the pseudo-random frequency hopping transmission sequence. Detection of a peak in the correlator signal is indicative of synchronization of the receiver with the network. The network entry synchronization scheme is such that, when two transceivers A and B are communicating, a third unnetworked transceiver C extracts the hidden network entry code pattern from the A-B transmission in order to enter the network. As a part of the communication between the two transceivers A and B, transceiver A transmits a known pattern as a hidden part of the communication which allows transceiver C to enter the A-B network. This hidden code pattern permits rapid synchronization and correction of large initial time errors, and permits correction of time drift from then on.
