Abstract
A spread spectrum communication equipment comprises a correlator outputting a correlation output signal, a timing generator generating two timing signals in response to a correlation peak value, detecting circuits for detecting information of a correlation output signal based on either one of the timing signals, receiving information detected in either one of the detecting circuits and checking whether the information coincides with the ID code, a switching circuit for selecting connection or disconnection between the detecting circuits and a demodulator, and a control circuit responsive to outputs of the checking circuits for selecting connection or disconnection with the switching circuit.
Claims2
A spread spectrum communication equipment comprising:
- a correlator for detecting a correlation between a received PN code include in a received signal and an internally provided reference PN code, and, in response, outputting a correlation output signal;
- a timing generator for generating at least one timing signal in response to a correlation peak value existing in said correlation output signal;
- a plurality of detectors each detecting information of said correlation output signal based on one of said timing signals generated by said timing generator;
- a plurality of ID checking means each receiving information detected by said detector and checking whether the information coincides with a previously stored ID code;
- a demodulator for receiving and demodulating output signals of said plurality of detectors;
- a switch provided between said plurality of detectors and said demodulator for selecting connection or disconnection between said plurality of detectors and said demodulator;
- and
- a controller responsive to outputs of said plurality of ID checking means for selecting connection or disconnection by said switch.
