Claim 11:
12. A processor configured to:
receive an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) waveform comprising a multiplexed signal, wherein the multiplexed signal comprises a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), an associated demodulation reference signal (DMRS), a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) that were multiplexed using time division multiplexing (TDM), wherein the DMRS and the SSS are allocated in a same symbol and wherein the DMRS comprises a synchronization signal block (SSB) time index and the SSS comprises partial cell ID information; and
demultiplex the multiplexed signal to result in a demultiplexed signal comprising the PBCH, DMRS, PSS and SSS.
