ABSTRACT:
A method to synchronize impulse radio signal in a receiver based on a cross-correlation between an input signal and a template pulse train is described. The method comprises the steps of receiving a radio signal, performing a correlation between the acquired radio signal and a template pulse train, splitting the correlation into at least two elementary correlations over intervals of predefined length and separated by a predetermined time to obtain elementary correlation output, performing an elementary threshold check on each elementary correlation output, summing the elementary threshold check outputs to form a sum result.
