Abstract
Codes to be detected can be identified at high speed. The supply of the data shift clock (D ) to be given to the matched filter ( ) is stopped at desired timing to hold the received signal (S ) and replica code generated at the correlation coefficient generator ( ) is switched to the first, second or third replica code at desired timing to detect the correlation value of that time. Thereby, the second code, the third code and the first code are detected in order to detect the timing and the code type of the first code. Therefore, each correlation detection can be conducted at the same timing since the matched filter conducts the correlation detection at high speed holding the received signal and thus, the first code included in the received signal can be identified at higher speed than before.
