Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a signal having communication data from two or more mobile devices, each identifiable by an associated pseudonoise sequence. A first mobile device is identifiable by a first pseudonoise sequence. Two or more samples of the received signal are stored in an input register. A segment of the first pseudonoise sequence is stored as a bit vector in a second register. The SIMD instruction is processed, by an SIMD processor, to produce correlation values associated with the segment of the first pseudonoise sequence and the samples of the received signal. Processing the SIMD instruction includes distributing the segment of the first pseudonoise sequence, as a bit vector, across two or more lanes of the SIMD processor. The processing contributes to despreading the received signal, and an output of the processing includes at least a portion of the communication data from the first mobile device.
