Abstract

A method and apparatus for tracking a signal comprises correlating a digital signal with a code using a hypothesis at a plurality of frequencies and at least one delay to produce correlation results, measuring an energy value of the correlation results, adjusting at least one of the frequency or delay in response to the measured energy value to form the hypothesis.
