Abstract
Method for forming and determining a signal sequence, a synchronization method, a transmitting unit and a receiving unit, including the formation of signal sequences that are based on partial signal sequences, the second partial signal sequence being repeated and modulated in the process by the first partial signal sequence, and at least one of the signal sequences being a Golay sequence, and use of these partial signal sequences for the purpose of simplified calculation of correlation sums in a two-stage calculation method, with one partial correlation sum sequence being calculated first.
