Abstract

A mobile communication method is disclosed, and particularly a power of two length pseudorandom noise sequence generator is disclosed, in which a pseudorandom noise code sequence is generated to use it for a direct sequence spreading of communication signals in a spread spectrum communication system. In the PN sequence generator, a mask value and a comparison value are calculated for shifting the PN sequence output having a length of 2.sup.N as much as wanted, so that the PN sequence can be shifted as much as a predetermined value in response to the single clock signal. In order to generate a PN sequence of the desired timing, a new PN mask value is directly obtained from the current PN mask value and the offset shift value to be shifted, and at the same time, a comparison value corresponding to the mask value is obtained, whereby ultimately a PN sequence having a length of 2.sup.N after shifting the cycle as much as the desired shifting value is obtained. The present invention adopts a method of forming a new comparison value corresponding to the PN mask value by using a comparison value translator, and as a result, the conventional additional circuits for inserting an additional …
