1. A method comprising:
- selecting a single frequency to effect Doppler removal;
receiving multiple communications signals having Doppler frequency shift from corresponding communications signal sources;
performing a Doppler removal process using the selected single frequency, the Doppler removal process performed concurrently for each received communication signal; and
performing a correlation process, the correlation process having an integration interval divided into multiple sub-intervals.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide a method for effecting Doppler removal and correlation for software-based receivers. For one embodiment of the invention Doppler removal is performed concurrently for all received communications signals. For one embodiment of the invention, a single frequency selected to effect Doppler removal, multiple communications signals having Doppler frequency shift are received from corresponding communications signal sources, and a Doppler removal process is performed concurrently for each received communication signal. A correlation process is then performed, the correlation process having an integration interval divided into multiple sub-intervals.
