Abstract
Parallel search circuit for a medical implant receiver. The circuit includes a radio frequency receiver that receives a first set of contents of a band of channels. The circuit also includes a processing circuit coupled to the radio frequency receiver to process in parallel a second set of contents of a plurality of channels of the band of channels and to detect a signal in the band of channels.

12. A method for signaling in a medical implant based system, the method comprising:
-
receiving a first set of contents of a band of channels by a receiver; converting the first set of contents into digital samples; storing the digital samples of the first set of contents; selecting a subset of the digital samples, the subset comprising contents of a plurality of channels from the band of channels; correcting one or more frequency offsets in the subset in parallel to obtain a filtered content for each channel; correlating the filtered content with a predefined sequence; and detecting a signal in the band of channels based on an output of the correlating.
