Abstract
A digital matched filter for a CDMA radio comprises a digital delay line having a plurality of successive delay stages adapted to receive a digital signal and propagate the digital signal therethrough at a fixed rate. A correlator is coupled to the digital delay line to correlate the digital signal to a predefined spreading code to provide a correlation signal representing a degree of correlation of the digital signal to the spreading code. A window logic unit is coupled to the correlator to enable operation of the correlator only during successive discrete time periods of the correlation signal corresponding to a high degree of correlation of the digital signal to the spreading code.
