Abstract
A pulse position modulation detector divides a timing window into a plurality of pulse position windows, determines the peak magnitude of a signal level received during each pulse position window, compares the peak magnitudes of the signal detected during each pulse position window to determine during which pulse position window the greatest peak magnitude is detected, and generates a bit sequence corresponding to the pulse position window wherein the greatest peak magnitude was detected within the current timing window.
