Abstract:

Aiming at the difficulty of blind estimation of pseudo-code sequence of soft spread spectrum signals with residual frequency offset, a singular value decomposition (SVD) combined with digital phase locked loop (DPLL) method is proposed. The data matrix is generated through non-overlapping segments of the signal to be processed, and the length of each segment is a single pseudo-code period. Then, the element in the upper right corner of the autocorrelation matrix is used to estimate the out-of-step point for synchronization, and the autocorrelation matrix is recalculated to estimate the base number according to the number of large eigenvalues. Finally, the blind estimation of pseudo-code sequence is finally realized by combining multiple fast SVD algorithms with DPLL. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively estimate the pseudo-code sequence of the soft spread spectrum signal with residual frequency offset under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and the performance of the proposed method is better than that of other comparative methods.

Key words: soft spread spectrum signal, blind estimation, residual frequency offset, singular value decomposition (SVD), digital phase locked loop (DPLL)
