Abstract-We present an efficient CDMA detection core suited for multiuser indoor acoustic positioning. An ultrasonic multicode despreader is proposed, allowing simultaneous broadband acoustic ranging signals to be processed in real time by embedded sensors. The ranging performance is characterised using a dataset gathered from a real deployment of ultrasonic devices and is shown to be favourable. The proposed core can be used as a basis for more sophisticated receivers, such as those capable of detecting heavily Doppler-shifted signals.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
