<p>A method is disclosed of determining the timing of the frame boundary and group of a ray received at a code division multiple access receiver from slots of data transmitted thereon. The method comprises correlating a first slot of data against N Hadamard codes to provide a first vector of length N bins. The bin of the first vector which has the largest power is then identified. A second slot of data is then correlated against the N Hadamard codes, the second slot being separated from the first slot by X slots where X is an integer, to provide a second vector of length N bins. The bin of the second vector which has the largest power is then identified. A search is then made through a table linking bin numbers to slot timings and groups for occurrences of a first value, corresponding to the identity of the largest power bin of the first vector, being separated from a second value, corresponding to the identity of the largest power bin of the second vector, by an amount equal to X slots. Finally, on the basis of a result of the searching steps, an output representative of the timing of the frame of the frame boundary and group of the ray is provided.</p> |
