Abstract
Time-offset, time-overlapping signals are received. The signals each include a pilot code, and at least some of the signals each include a user code occupying a time slot time-synchronized to a respective pilot code. Time-offset cross-correlation peaks for respective ones of the pilot codes are generated, each cross-correlation peak indicating a respective one of the time slots. For each time slot a respective projection vector including user code projections each indicative of whether a respective user code of known user codes is present in the time slot is generated. Particular ones of the projection vectors are selectively combined into an aggregate projection vector of aggregate user code projections, such that the aggregate projection vector has a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) greater than the projection vectors individually. The user code is selected from among the known user codes based on the aggregate user code projections of the aggregate projection vector.
