Abstract:
1. A method for determining an arrival time associated with a synchronization burst, comprising: determining first data indicative of a training sequence code associated with a first synchronization burst; determining a first set of data bits associated with said first synchronization burst; receiving said first synchronization burst from a base station; determining, from said first synchronization burst, second data indicative of said training sequence code; determining, from said first synchronization burst, a second set of data bits associated with said synchronization burst; and determining a first arrival time associated with said first synchronization burst based on said first data indicative of said training sequence code, said second data indicative of said training sequence code, said first said of data bits, and said second set of data bits, wherein said first set of data bits includes thirty-nine data bits from said first synchronization burst and said second set of data bits includes said thirty-nine data bits from said first synchronization burst.
