Initial synchronization in spread spectrum receiver
First Claim
1. An initial synchronization system for spread spectrum communication comprising:
- a despreader-demodulator circuit for despreading and demodulating an input spread spectrum signal according to a despread control signal to reproduce a data signal;
a decoder circuit for error-correction-decoding the data signal and outputting a code synchronization signal when code synchronization is taken;
a correlation detector circuit in response to an initial synchronization start signal for detecting the correlation of the input spread spectrum signal for an initial synchronization and generating the despread control signal and a correlation detection signal; and
a control circuit for outputting the initial synchronization start signal to said correlation detector circuit so as to cause said correlation detector circuit to restart the initial synchronization if the code synchronization signal is not generated within a predetermined period after the correlation detection signal was generated.

Abstract
An initial synchronization system for spread spectrum communication including a despreader-demodulator circuit for despreading and demodulating an input signal according to a despread control signal, a decoder circuit for decoding a data signal demodulated by the despreader-demodulator circuit and outputting a code synchronization signal when code synchronization is taken, a correlation detector circuit in response to the input signal for detecting the correlation of the input signal and generating the despread control signal and a correlation detection signal, and a control circuit for outputting an initial synchronization start signal to the correlation detector circuit so as to cause the correlation detector circuit to start the initial synchronization if the code synchronization signal is not generated within a predetermined period after the correlation detection signal was generated.
