Abstract
The paper presents a time-domain approach to the analysis of the code phase acquisition process in direct sequence spread spectrum receivers. This approach is suitable for a variety of search and verification/lock strategies. The time-domain approach is more direct than the unified z transform-domain approach and permits computation of the acquisition time distribution. The paper also provides equations for calculating the mean acquisition time under various search and verification/lock strategies. The usefulness of the approach is demonstrated by application to a specific nontrivial case of practical significance.
