ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is provided for estimating signal power. The estimating is accomplished by correlating (206) an input data vector (204) with a set of mutually orthogonal codes to generate a set of output values. The input data vector (204) consists of data samples of a received orthogonal coded signal (202). Each output value corresponds to a measure of confidence that the input data vector is substantially similar to one of the orthogonal codes from within the set of mutually orthogonal codes. Finally, an estimate of the power of the received orthogonal coded signal is generated (208) as a nonlinear function of the set output values.
