Assignee: LG ELECTRONICS INC.
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 7:
8. A user equipment (UE) of determining an index of a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
at least one transceiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operatively connected to the at least one transceiver and the at least one processor and, when executed, causing the at least one transceiver and the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
detecting, through the at least one transceiver, a SS/PBCH block on a cell,
wherein the detected SS/PBCH block includes a primary synchronization signal (PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), and a PBCH with a PBCH demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) sequence for the PBCH, and
wherein the PBCH DM-RS sequence is related to (i) a cell identifier (ID) of the cell and (ii) an index of the detected SS/PBCH block; and
determining the index of the detected SS/PBCH based on a one-to-one mapping with the PBCH DM-RS sequence for the PBCH.
