This book tackles the issue of the rapid acquisition of spreading codes in Direct-Sequence/Spread-Spectrum systems. In particular, a new algorithm is proposed that exploits the experience of the iterative decoding of modern codes to detect these sequences. This new method is a Message-Passing-based algorithm. Specifically, instead of correlating the received signal with local replicas of the transmitted Linear-Feedback-Shift-Register sequence, an iterative Message-Passing (MP) algorithm is implemented to be run on a loopy graph. Thus, this work is an analysis of the detection technique based...
