ABSTRACT:
A threshold level generator for generating threshold levels to detect zero-crossings of a spread spectrum received waveform. An IF sampler quantizes the received spread spectrum signals at IF. The IF signal is sampled at a number of quarter cycle intervals to allow sampling in sequence of the in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) components. The outputs of the IF sampler are two bits, a sign bit and a magnitude bit. The threshold level generator using only the sign bit of the I and Q samples sets a threshold level (T0) to detect the zero-crossings of a received waveform. Two magnitude threshold levels are set at fixed offsets (D1 and D2) from the T0 threshold level.
