Abstract:
1. A method that facilitates identifying communication schemes in a wireless communication system, comprising: generating a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal; mapping the primary synchronization signal and the secondary synchronization signal at different locations in time of a radio frame, wherein the location of the primary synchronization signal and the location of the secondary synchronization signal relative to each other are determined based at least in part on a first parameter corresponding to a base station, wherein the primary synchronization signal and the secondary synchronization signal are mapped at a periodicity that is independent of the first parameter, the periodicity indicative of how often the primary and secondary synchronization signals are transmitted in the radio frame; and transmitting the primary synchronization signal and the secondary synchronization signal at the locations in the radio frame over a downlink.
