A time shifted replica signal (SLS) is generated from a reference signal (SPS) including a series of samples (A to K) describing bits of a data message, the sampling rate being at least twice the data message bit rate. The phases of the reference signal samples are determined with respect to virtual epochs (41) of the data message bits of the reference signal (SPS). The time shifted replica signal (SLS) is composed from the reference signal samples as a function of the phases of the reference signal samples. In another embodiment, the time shifted replica signal (SLS) is composed from the reference signal samples (A to K), the sampling rate of the replica signal (SLS) being the same as that of the reference signal (SPS), at least one reference signal sample (A to K) not being present in the time shifted replica signal (SLS).
A method of generating a time shifted replica signal from a reference signal comprising a series of samples describing bits of a data message, said bits having a data message bit rate, said samples having a sampling rate greater than the data message bit rate, the method comprising:
A method of generating a time shifted replica signal from a reference signal comprising a series of samples describing bits of a data message, said bits having a data message bit rate, said samples having a sampling rate greater than the data message bit rate, the method comprising composing the time shifted replica signal from the reference signal samples, wherein the sampling rate of the replica signal is the same as that of the reference signal, and wherein at least one reference signal sample is not present in the time shifted replica signal.
