Performance of multiple-dwell pseudo-noise code acquisition with I-Q detector on frequency-nonselective multipath fading channels
Wern‐Ho Sheen, Sauz Chlou · 2002
Multiple-dwell serial search pseudo-noise (PN) code acquisition with noncoherent I-Q detector is analyzed for frequency nonselective Rayleigh and Rician fading channels. Optimum mean acquisition time is used to evaluate the effects of multipath fading and frequency offset. Moreover, the performance of the I-Q detector is compared with that of the square-law detector.
