Abstract

A preamble detection system and method includes converting the phase domain input samples corresponding to the preamble into frequency domain input samples. An I/Q-formatted dot product is generated from a dot product process between the frequency domain input samples and a reference pattern indicative of an expected preamble. The I/Q-formatted dot product is averaged with at least one previously generated I/Q-formatted dot product to generate an I/Q-formatted averaged dot product. The I/Q-formatted averaged dot product is converted into a polar-formatted averaged dot product, wherein the polar-formatted averaged dot product includes a magnitude of the polar-formatted averaged dot product and an angle of the polar-formatted averaged dot product. A preamble-found signal is then generated in response to the magnitude of the polar-formatted averaged dot product exceeding a preamble magnitude threshold.
