Abstract  Abstract

In spread spectrum multiple access communication by direct spread system, a synchronizing method for operating accurately and stably and its circuit are disclosed.
A signal transmitted by modulating the spread code by data at the transmission side is sampled by the signal of n times (n: 1 or larger integer) of chip speed of the spread signal at the reception side, and the correlation is detected by a digital matched filter. Consequently, the detection output in every sample in the symbol period is compared from the envelope detection output determined in every sampling period, and the sample positions for a specific number of determined samples are stored in the descending order of the output. The number of times of storage of sample positions large in the stored detection output is counted in every symbol period, and the position of the largest number of times of storage is detected as the peak position. From this peak position, thereby, capturing or holding of the symbol period, and setting of reception window position are executed.
