In simplest case Barker's sequency consist from "1"(+1) and "0"(-1) so computing cross--corelation easy execute by XORing Send_Barker[] with Recv_Barker[] bit to bit and sum resulting bit sum . The main difficulty is time step choicing resulting from what distance measure precision needed. I would like to see any additional information about Barker codes longer than 13 digit .
