A robust frequency drift tracking receiver. The received signal is translated to an intermediate frequency in the RF stage by a quadrature demodulator, and is then brought into the base band by a digital mixer made by a CORDIC. A base band processing, stage allows for a synchronisation of the receiver relative to the data frame, to estimate data and to output a counter-reaction signal to the CORDIC, obtained by integration of successive frequency corrections with a predetermined step.

A method is disclosed for performing calculations for an inclinometer device, as is a digital circuitry for performing such calculations. The circuitry comprises an interface for receiving detection signals from a sensor device and a CORDIC unit for performing calculation of inclinometer output values characterizing a resultant vector. The CORDIC calculation unit is configured to perform a calculation for resolving the angle between a resultant vector and a programmable reference value using hyperbolic CORDIC calculation. Pre-rotation may be performed for a vector before hyperbolic CORDIC arctangent calculation phases.

An apparatus and method allow receivers to quickly acquire a pseudorandom noise signal. A receiver advantageously detects frequency shifts using a compact parallel process hardware implementation of a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). The simultaneous detection of multiple frequencies allows the receiver to search the frequency range of the transmitted signal in larger increments of frequency, thereby increasing the speed of acquisition. One receiver does not use coherent integration before computation of the transform and advantageously maintains a flat frequency response. The flat frequency response of the DFT circuit enables searching of multiple frequency offsets without CPU intensive processing to compensate for frequency response variations. A receiver can include a Doppler correction circuit, which permits correlation data with frequency shift in the code to be non-coherently integrated among relatively fewer addresses or tap positions in memory.

A cartesian to polar coordinate converter using a cordic magnitude circuit for estimating the magnitude and angle of a vector from its known orthogonal components. The vector is described in cartesian coordinates by the complex number I+jQ. The magnitude of the vector and its angle are approximated by an iterative process of successively rotating the vector toward one of the orthogonal axes and the cordic magnitude circuit is implemented in one very large scale integrated (VLSI) complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chip. In systems using a typical cordic magnitude circuit, accuracy increases in direct proportion to the number of rotations. The increase is accompanied by a need for an increased word size which results in a slower operating speed. The improved cordic magnitude circuit achieves higher precision without the need for a larger word size. The Q processing portion of the improved circuit takes advantage of the fact that each value of Q is reduced by one-half with each succeeding rotation after the first rotation, thereby vacating the most significant bit (MSB) position. By doubling the resultant value of Q, the MSB is refilled and the least significant bit (LSB) is vacated making room to accommodate the precision growth of one LSB associated with the next rotation. For small magnitude vectors, the I processing portion of the magnitude circuit left shifts the I and Q components by two bit positions at each rotation to accommodate two additional bits of precision in both the I and Q words.

An apparatus and method for angle rotation is disclosed to rotate a complex input by the angle θ to produce a rotated complex output signal. A memory storage device generates control information based on a coarse angle θM. A coarse rotation butterfly circuit uses the control information to rotate the complex input signal by the coarse angle θM to produce an intermediate complex number. The control information controls one or more multiplexers and/or adders in the coarse rotation butterfly circuit to rotate the complex input signal. The fine rotation butterfly circuit uses the control information to rotate the intermediate complex number by a fine angle θL to produce the complex output signal. The control information controls one or more multiplexers and/or adders in the fine rotation butterfly circuit to rotate the intermediate complex number.
