Abstract
A double dwell, maximum likelihood, serial sliding acquisition system (10) employs two thresholds which are a function of maximum likelihood thresholds, and not predetermined optimal thresholds. The two thresholds have values that are signal dependent, and are obtained in real time from a correlation of a received PN signal and a locally generated PN sequence during the acquisition process. The acquisition system continuously monitors the reliability of the detected signal. As a result, the decision making process is continuously performed so as to terminate the acquisition process whenever the detected signal is determined to be reliable. The acquisition system employs a principle that an optimal threshold level, in the power domain, is 6 dB lower than that of the maximum likelihood signal. The acquisition system obtains the maximum signal power from a maximum likelihood detector portion to adaptively update a threshold estimate, and then uses the adaptive threshold estimate for monitoring the reliability of the detected signal. After the reliable signal is detected the search process continues for an additional interval of time which is a function of a false alarm probability. The limited interval for which the search process continues is preferably a fraction or multiple of the second, longer dwell time. This additional searching interval is referred to as a post-detection search interval. During the post-detection search interval, the acquisition system monitors the received signal samples and, when no additional signal is detected, the acquisition process is terminated.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
