Abstract

A multipath diversity spread spectrum communications receiver will enhance system performance over communication channels with distortion caused by multipath and fading effects. The multipath diversity receiver utilizes decision directed coherent integration with post detection correlation techniques for performance enhancement. The receiver also incorporates a fast attack, fast release automatic gain control to process noncontinuous wideband spread spectrum signals which are subject to fading and multipath effects.
