Rake receiver for DS-CDMA UWB system and DS-CDMA receiver having the same

摘要

A rake receiver for DS-CDMA UWB system and a DS-CDMA receiver having the same are provided. The rake receiver includes: a channel estimator for estimating a channel having a predetermined chip duration by using a synchronization acquisition sequence; a tracking module for detecting a channel variation and adjusting a synchronization position value when the channel variation is detected; a first switch for selecting one of an output value of an analog-to-digital converter and an output value of a correlator and outputting the selected value; a second switch for selecting one of the output value of the analog-to-digital converter and the output value of the correlator; and a plurality of demodulators having a parallel processing structure to demodulate received signals by using the channel estimation value inputted from the channel estimator, the synchronization position value stored by the tracking module, and an output value of the second switch.
