Abstract
Interference removal in spread spectrum signals, comprises the steps at a spread spectrum transmitter (10) of spreading information across a predetermined spectrum by phase modulating a repeating noise sequence (18), providing a spread spectrum signal and transmitting the spread spectrum signal. The method further comprises the steps at a receiver of receiving the spread spectrum signal along with interference (41) multiplying (42) the spread spectrum signal along with interference by a window function (44) providing a multiplied spread spectrum signal. The information is recovered by despreading the multiplied (48) spread spectrum signal using a reciprocal (50) of the spectrum of the repeating noise sequence to obtain a data spectrum with interference and subsequently normalize (52) to obtain a clean data spectrum. Alternatively the information can be recovered by substituting a corrupted magnitude spectrum with a prestored PN sequence magnitude spectrum (70) as shown by receiver (60).
