Abstract: A multiple integration hypothesis C/A code acquisition system resolves bit boundaries using parallel correlators providing magnitude hypotheses during acquisition to reduce losses over the 20 ms integration period to improve the performance and sensitivity of C/A code receivers to achieve low C/No performance using inexpensive, imprecise oscillators and long noncoherent dwell periods, well suited for in-building, multipath, and foliage attenuated GPS signaling applicable to E911 communications with several dB of additional improvement in receiver sensitivity due to the ability to detect bit synchronization during acquisition.

Abstract: A direct-sequence-spread-spectrum (DSSS) optical-frequency-shift-keying (OFSK) code-division-multiple-access (CDMA) communication system is adapted with optical transmitters and receivers for preferred use fiber optical communication systems where modulated data and pseudorandom noise (PRN) codes are encoded in the optical domain and communicated over optical paths for increasing system capacity in wide area optical networks.

Abstract: A civil moderate (CM) code and a civil long (CL) code are time division multiplex (TDM) as a combined code having alternating code chips that spectrum spread a transmitted signal received by a receiver tracking the spectrum spreading code using a two-level correlator operating with +1 and −1 values to alternately correlate the received CM and CL code chips using a gating signal to gate by time the correlation of the two codes. The time gated two-level TDM correlation can be used in communication receivers, such as GPS receivers, receiving the TDM spectrum spreading codes.

Abstract: A generalized quadrature product subcarrier modulation system applies subcarrier modulation to quadrature modulated signals with constant envelope modulation suitable for efficient sinewave and squarewave subcarrier modulations. The quadrature subcarrier modulation enables the addition of new signals to the in-phase and quadrature phase signals with spectral isolation while maintaining a constant amplitude waveform.
