Systems, apparatus and methods for determining a cyclic shift diversity (CSD) mode are presented. Examples use two different autocorrelations to determine a current CSD mode. Specifically, a delay-based autocorrelation and a cyclic shift-based autocorrelation are each computed then compared to each other, for example, by taking a difference of the two autocorrelations. A multipath signal leads to similar autocorrelations, where as a signal with a CSD mode enabled leads to dissimilar autocorrelations. By examining the number of peaks in the delay-based autocorrelation or the autocorrelation difference, a current CSD mode may be determined.
