Abstract :
A computationally efficient reference beamformer is proposed to acquire and recover CDMA packets in an ad hoc network in the presence of co-channel interference. By combining a bank of code matched filters with a spatial whitener, multiple packets in the same time slot can be acquired simultaneously.
