An exclusive OR of outputs from a plurality of shift stages of an M-series generator is formed, thereby obtaining an M-series which has a desired delay, which in an example is a three bit delay with respect to the output code from the generator. Similarly, outputs from a plurality of shift stages are combined and an exclusive OR thereof is formed to provide another delayed M-series. An exclusive OR of each output from the simultaneously delayed code generator and an output from another M-series generator is formed, thus simultaneously obtaining a plurality of Gold code series.

Simultaneous plural code series generator and CDMA radio receiver using same

A CDMA radio receiver includes a plurality of reception fingers for effecting a dispreading of a received signal with a plurality of spread codes to derive received data. The receiver includes a plural code generator for simultaneously generating and supplying spread codes to the plurality of reception fingers, and a controller for designating a plurality of spread codes which are to be generated and supplied to the plural code series generator and for specifying to which finger they are to be supplied. The plural code series generator includes a shift register having a plurality of shift stages in which a first initial value is loaded by the controller and adapted to be subject to a shift operation in synchronism with a clock.

A receiving method using a CDMA radio receiver with a plurality of receiving fingers each composed of a code generator, a correlator and a detector. In a visited cell search while in the ON-state of the power supply, different long-period spreading codes are set in the code generators, and if none of correlated outputs from the correlators respectively corresponding to the code generators exceed a threshold value, then new different long-period spreading codes are set in the code generators. If any one of the correlator outputs exceeds the threshold value, the mobile station is decided as staying in the cell corresponding to the long-period spreading code set in that correlator, and this long-period spreading code and time points at which peaks of correlator outputs were obtained with the long-period spreading code are set in the receiving fingers in descending order of the magnitude of correlation peaks.
