Granted: 2002-10-01
Abstract: The present invention provides an improved optical receiver superior to conventional ones in photo-detection sensitivity and capable of providing an increased receiving range for optical remote control receivers. A p-type semiconductor substrate (1) and a light receiving section (2) that is an n-type impurity region formed on the semiconductor substrate (1) together form a photodiode. A first p-type impurity region (3) is formed on the surface of the light receiving section (2) and around the light receiving section (2). The first p-type impurity region (3) overlying the light receiving section surface (2) forms a first shield section (5) for providing protection against electromagnetic noise. This first shield section (5), in lattice shape, partially covers the light receiving section (2) surface for preventing an excessive occurrence of spontaneous noise due to contact with the light receiving section. Additionally, a second p-type impurity region (4) formed deeper than the light receiving section (2) is formed in such a way as to enclose the first p-type impurity region (3) for providing protection against electromagnetic noise incident on the side face of the semiconductor substrate (1).

Title: Mobile station synchronization within a spread spectrum communications system
Inventor: ESMAILZADEH RIAZ
IPC: H04W56/00
Filed: 1998-06-06
Granted: 2000-04-11
Abstract: Each frame of a pilot channel transmission in a spread spectrum communications system is divided into a plurality of synchronization slots. Each of the synchronization slots includes a pilot code, and at least one of the synchronization slots further includes a framing synchronization code. To extract frame and slot synchronization information from the pilot channel transmission, pilot code timing is first identified by applying a matched filter or correlation to a received pilot signal, identifying peaks, and using the peaks to find a timing reference indicative of synchronization slot boundaries. Next, the set of known framing synchronization codes are correlated with the received signal over the included found synchronization slots. Given that the location within the frame of the known framing synchronization code(s) is know, once a correlation match is found at a certain slot location, the boundary of the fram (I.e., the frame synchronization) relative thereto is then also known.
