A signature sequence employed in a wireless transmission over a channel is detected and utilized. The signature sequence is selected from a set of sequences formed by delay-Doppler shifts of a base sequence. Preferably but not exclusively, the set of sequences is formed by circular delay-Doppler shifts of the base sequence. The base sequence can be, for example, an m-sequence. A received signal is obtained from a received wireless transmission. A candidate sequence selector (90) selects a candidate sequence from among a set of sequences for evaluation as the signature sequence, the set of sequences having been formed by sequence set generator (88) as delay-Doppler shifts of a base sequence. An image former (82) uses the base sequence and the received signal to form a delay-Doppler image with respect to an image area pertinent to the candidate sequence. A metric analyzer (84) computes a metric over the image area pertinent to the candidate sequence and uses the metric to determine if the signature sequence is the candidate sequence. A sequence utilization device (76) can use the signature sequence to identify another transceiver unit which sent the wireless transmission, and/or use the signature sequence for synchronization with another transceiver unit which sent the wireless transmission. |
