Abstract:
1. A transmitter for transmitting signals to a receiver, wherein the transmitter is configured to generate a padded code sequence comprising a plurality of symbols with the last symbol being a duplication of the first symbol, determine a transmission length and divide the padded code sequence into at least two sections according to the transmission length, and transmit said sections of the padded code sequence to the receiver via an air interface, wherein the last symbol of each of said sections is the duplication of the first symbol in the next section, except that the last symbol of the last section is the duplication of the first symbol of the first section, wherein, in response to the last section being shorter than the transmission length, the last section is padded with a number of continuous symbols subsequent to the first symbol of the first section, causing the last section equal to the transmission length.
