  • Rapid signal acquisition and synchronization for access transmissions
    Patent number: 6044074
    Abstract: A system and method for rapidly acquiring timing of an access transmission that uses an access probe that is transmitted in stages. A first stage of the access probe is spread with a short pseudonoise (PN) code pair. A second stage of the access probe is spread with both the short PN code pair and a long PN code. Transmitting the access probe in stages reduces the number of hypotheses, and hence the time, required by a receiver attempting to acquire the access probe.
