A spread-spectrum-matched-filter apparatus including a code generator, an in-phase-programmable-matched filter, a quadrature-phase-programmable-matched filter, an in-phase-frame-matched filter, a quadrature-phase-frame-matched filter, and a controller. The code generator generates replicas of a pilot-chip-sequence signal and a data-chip-sequence signal, which are used to set the programmable-impulse responses of the in-phase-programmable-matched filter and the quadrature-phase-programmable-matched filter. The programmable-impulse responses are alternately changed between that of the pilot-chip-sequence signal and the data-chip-sequence signal so that the in-phase-programmable-matched filter and the quadrature-phase-programmable-matched filter alternately detect the pilot-spread-spectrum channel and the data-spread-spectrum channel embedded in a received spread-spectrum signal, respectively. The in-phase-frame-matched filter and the quadrature-phase-frame-matched filter detect a despread-pilot-bit-sequence signal and generate a peak-pilot-correlation signal which can be used for timing of the controller as to when to trigger changing the programmable-impulse responses of the programmable-matched filters.
