ABSTRACT
In this study we investigate acquisition (code offset and channel
state estimation) of multiple direct sequence spread spectrum
DSSS signals in a multi-antenna ad hoc network. We
derive the form of the optimal acquisition algorithm and
show that it is NP-complete. We then derive a tractable
suboptimal approach where we use a successive multistage
cancellation approach in estimating the initial code offsets
and channel matrix. Finally, we show probability of error
curves for the optimal and suboptimal delay estimators.
