Abstract
The present invention is for fast, reliable recognition of coded signals where the signal includes a predetermined code sequence in a lead portion thereof. This has particular application in spread spectrum transmission and receptions. The code sequence is a long sequence of bits known to the receiver which breaks the long sequence into a series of bit segments which are more easily analysed. Each series of bits is analysed for a direct match and a decision whether a code segment has been received is based on the number of direct matches. For example, if there are 8 bit segments, each 16 bits in length, high reliability has been achieved if two direct matches are received within a time period corresponding t the transmission time of the code sequence. This system can also be used for assessing signal strength where many matches indicate good signal strength, approximately 50% indicates moderate signal strength, and less indicating poor signal strength.
