Methods and systems for acquiring signals using coherent match filtering

摘要

Embodiments include methods and apparatus for verifying the detection of a correlation peak, which may represent an acquisition of a received acquisition code symbol sequence. The method includes determining a series of coherently-aligned peaks from a series of correlation peaks. Determining the plurality of coherently-aligned peaks includes correcting a frequency offset and a phase offset for each of the plurality of correlation peaks. A coherent match filter process is performed on the plurality of coherently-aligned peaks. A detection of the correlation peak may be verified when the match filter result exceeds a threshold.
