  • Patent number: 5596571
    Abstract: A radiotelephone (10) capable of operation within a CDMA radiotelephone system. The radiotelephone includes a receiver (30) for receiving a paging channel transmission; a system time pseudonoise (PN) generator (18); and despreading circuitry (20, 22, 24 26, 28), having an input coupled to the receiver, for despreading the paging channel transmission received during at least a portion of the assigned slot. The assigned slot is predetermined to have a duration that is three times the duration of a rollover period of the system time pseudonoise (PN) generator (26.667 msec) and four times the duration of one frame (20 msec), or 80 msec. The use of predetermined masks for initializing the PN generators, and in particular a Long Code PN generator (32), is also described.
