The invention relates to a method for determining the correlation phase between a signal received at a receiver and a replica sequence. A matched filter multiplies samples (21) of the received signal with samples (22) of the replica and sums the resulting products to obtain a correlation value for a...http://www.google.com/patents/US7286594?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US7286594 - Determination of the correlation phase between a signal and a replica sequence
