Claim Text:
1. A method for signaling comprising: receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a discovery reference signal (DRS) transmission over a first antenna port and a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) transmission over a second antenna port, the first antenna port being different from the second antenna port, the DRS transmission being a different type of signal than the CRS transmission; processing, by the UE, the DRS transmission to obtain a DRS processing result; processing, by the UE, the CRS transmission to obtain a CRS processing result, the DRS transmission being received prior to the CRS transmission; and using, by the UE, the DRS processing result in conjunction with the CRS processing result to establish channel synchronization with the second antenna port when the first antenna port and the second antenna port are quasi-co-located (QCL).
