Abstract
Various embodiments relate to a method of determining the presence of a spread spectrum signal, including: receiving N input samples of a signal; performing a first autocorrelation on the N input samples with a first offset; performing a second autocorrelation on the N input samples with a second offset; performing a third autocorrelation on the N input samples with a third offset; performing a fourth autocorrelation on the N input samples with a fourth offset; performing a fifth autocorrelation on the N input samples with a fifth offset; determining if the values of the first, second, and third autocorrelations are decreasing, and determining if the values of the fourth and fifth autocorrelations are less than a threshold value, then determining that a spread spectrum signal is present in the N input samples.
