摘要 |
The invention concerns an optimal particulate receiver recurrently delivering maximum likelihood joint estimation of source information (discrete variables and their synchronisation, as well as continuous parameters) transmitted by pulsed modulation, with possible access and channel codes for communications, and picked up in the form of noisy sampled data after Doppler effect and optional multipath effect and input filter and adapted correlator. The invention is characterised by K x L x M x N initial digital processors, virtual or real, said to be particulate, receiving in parallel said data and calculating the global probability measurement. The maximum likelihood delivered comprises in particular the maximum values of probabilities corresponding to the most likely message useful in telecommunications, and to the most likely state of continuous parameters useful in remote positioning with possibility of modularity of two functions and, for the latter, possible discrimination of multipath effects less than the (over)sampling period.
