Abstract
The method consists in estimating the matrix of correlation R.sub.XX of the signals received on a set of N reception sensors, computing the reverse correlation matrix R.sub.XX.sup.-n, computing vectors of intercorrelation r.sub.Xd between the signals received on the set of the N sensors and a known replica signal d(k), computing a criterion of synchronization in calculating the products of the conjugate, transposed intercorrection vectors R.sub.XX.sup.-n and of the matrix of the intercorrelation vector r.sub.Xdi and comparing the value of the criterion obtained with a determined threshold value 1 to place the synchronization on the sample for which the value of the criteria exceeds the threshold value .eta.. To estimate the Doppler shift the synchronization sequence is subdivided into a determined number of sections of symbols to carry out fast Fourier transform computations on determined intercorrelation vectors in each section.
