This paper presents a segmented matched filter (SMF) for PN code acquisition in direct sequence spread spectrum systems. While conventional matched filters provide fast acquisition in the presence of high co-user interference, they are unable to handle the problem of Doppler shift. This problem is alleviated by filter segmentation with non-coherent summation. The paper focused on validating the segmented matched filter codephase synchronization method. Simulations were carried out to verify the functionality of the SMF from a statistical point of view. The simulated performance of the SMF was compared with that of the traditional synchronization techniques and was found to show an improvement over the traditional methods when Doppler shift was present.
