Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing decimated correlation in a wireless communications network is disclosed. An input signal composed of a plurality of streaming samples of the input signal is received and applied to a plurality of shift registers coupled to computation logic. The computation logic receives an input of correlation options and a correlation pattern. Based upon a comparison to a correlation threshold, the correlator selectively holds the correlation options constant to inhibit a new correlation, and/or selectively freezes streaming samples input to the computation logic via a plurality of corresponding shadow registers to save power.
