A digital processing device for a modulated signal, arranged at the input
of a radio frequency receiver chain, suited in particular to a
transmission system a direct sequence spread spectrum operation,
comprising an analog-to-digital converter performing undersampling of the
signal received, leading to an overlapping of the frequency range of the
undersampled wanted signal by the frequency range of an interfering
signal, demodulation means connected at the output of the
analog-to-digital converter in order to bring the undersampled wanted
signal back to baseband, a low pass filter connected at the output of the
demodulation means and a filter matched to the spreading code used, and
an additional filtering unit arranged between the low pass filter and the
matched filter, for implementing a stochastic matched filtering operation
to improve the signal-to-noise ratio at the input of the matched filter.
