Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATED
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A base station for wireless communication, comprising:
at least one processor;
a transceiver communicatively coupled to the at least one processor; and
a memory communicatively coupled to the at least one processor,
wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
allocate a plurality of time resources for aperiodic transmission of one or more instances of at least one synchronization signal different from a synchronization signal block transmitted by the base station, each of the at least one synchronization signal spanning over a respective single orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbol; and
transmit the aperiodic transmission of the one or more instances of the at least one synchronization signal to at least one user equipment (UE) using the plurality of time resources, wherein each of the at least one synchronization signal is unrelated to another synchronization signal and is transmitted regardless of whether any other synchronization signal is transmitted.
