Abstract

A system for synchronizing a receiver of a bit stream to the bit stream include a correlator to remove the PN code modulation and to generate a stream of time sequence values (samples) from the received bits. Multiple accumulators are included, each accumulator corresponding to a different offset from a first time period. The accumulators add a number of values equal to a number of samples in a bit period. Multiple magnitude calculators receive sums from the corresponding accumulators and calculates respective magnitudes. Multiple non-coherent summers are then used to add the magnitudes for each offset in each bit period for all of the received bits. The outputs of the non-coherent summers are analyzed to find the highest value, to identify the location of the bit transition in the bit period.
