ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for synchronizing and demodulating radio wave signals transmitted in frame format with an unique word, involving correcting the frequency offset of the received signal and differentially correlating the frequency corrected signal with the unique word, A first timing estimate is further refined by a 2-D search between frequency and time and a first frequency estimate is further refined by quadratic interpolation. The finely synchronized signal is demodulated using a Viterbi-based demodulator.
