In this paper a new ITm-type delay acquisition/tracking approach is proposed which is based on partitioning of the PN-code matrix of the CDMA users into submatrices which are then used to form a 'state-space' Hm-type linear combiner. The proposed novel formulation and approach is robust to modelling errors such as over-and underestimation of the number of signals present and provides a powerful near-far resistant delaytracking solution in a multiuser DS-CDMA signal environment.
