Dsss sinyaller için tespit teknikleri

In this work interception and spreading sequence estimation of Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) signals, in low signal to noise power ratios is discussed. For interception an approach based on autocorrelation fluctuations is employed and also symbol period is estimated from this interception process. Spreading sequence estimation is performed by using eigenanalysis of the correlation matrix and estimated symbol period. These approaches are applied on different kinds of DSSS signals including 3rd generation UMTS signal and LPI radar signals. In order to examine the channel effects such as; multipath, interference and colored noise, on the performance of applied techniques, detailed analysis results are obtained. The results are compared with the performances of alternative interception techniques.M.S. - Master of Scienc
