In a non-cooperative context, a receiver has to estimate the communication parameters without any prior knowledge of the transmitter, which is highly demanding. Estimating a self-synchronous scrambler is even more challenging because the scrambling sequence of the self-synchronous scrambler is affected by the input sequence. This paper proposes an improved algorithm for blind estimation of a self-synchronous scrambler using the orthogonal property without any bias condition of the received signals in direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) systems. We first examine the linear relation of a scrambling sequence using the repetitive property of the spreading code used in a DSSS system. Using the obtained linear relation and the basis of the orthogonal complement space, we then acquire the feedback polynomial candidates of the scrambler. Finally, by calculating the greatest common divisor polynomial of the feedback polynomial candidates, we estimate the correct feedback polynomial. Through computer simulations, we verify that the proposed method achieves superior estimation performance compared to the existing method. Furthermore, we show that the proposed method has practically acceptable computational complexity. For these reasons, it is expected that the proposed method can be applied to blind estimation of a self-synchronous scrambler in a practical non-cooperative system.
