A system is provided for use with a frequency band including a transmission frequency and a received frequency. The transmission frequency includes a transmission signal having a transmitted unique word therein. The received frequency includes a received signal having a received unique word therein, wherein the received unique word had been received at a received time and at a received phase. The system includes a first sub-correlator, a second sub-correlator and a discrete Fourier transform device. The first sub-correlator can perform a first correlation of only a first portion of the received unique word with a corresponding first portion of the transmitted unique word over a plurality of instances of time and can output a first plurality of sub-correlation values. The second sub-correlator can perform a second correlation of only a second portion of the received unique word with a corresponding second portion of the transmitted unique word over the plurality of instances of time and can output a second plurality of sub-correlation values. The discrete Fourier transform device can perform a discrete Fourier transform over a plurality of frequencies within the frequency band on the first plurality of sub-correlation values and can perform a discrete Fourier transform over the plurality of frequencies within the frequency band on the second plurality of sub-correlation values. The first portion of the received unique word is different from the second portion of the received unique word.
