A method and apparatus for processing a secondary synchronization channel (222a) in a spread spectrum system is disclosed herein. The method includes several steps, the first of which is to receive a first input data (250) at a correlator. Next, a first code sequence of a code group (242) is received at the correlator. The first correlator then correlates the first input data with the first code sequence. Afterward, a second code sequence is received at the correlator. This time, the first input data is correlated with the second code sequence. Correlation of both the first code sequence and the second code sequence occurs prior to receiving a second input data. Lastly, correlation results (241) from the first correlator are compared with a threshold value using a threshold detector (244).
