Method of processing a pulse response with an adaptive threshold and corresponding receiver

摘要

A method of processing a pulse response with an adaptive threshold and corresponding receiver. According to the method, an adaptive threshold is calculated that is a function of a maximum reached by the pulse response, noise, and a coefficient adjustable between 0 and 1. The processing only comes into operation for signals that exceed this threshold. Such a method may find application notably to digital radio-communications with spread spectrum.
