Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communications, comprising: receiving, from a stronger cell, first and second signals for determining a cell identity of the stronger cell; receiving, from a weaker cell, a third signal for determining at least a portion of a cell identity of the weaker cell, wherein at least a portion of the third signal overlaps at least one of the first signal, the second signal, or both the first signal and the second signal; sampling the first, second, and third signals; cancelling out samples of at least one of the first signal, the second signal, or both the first signal and the second signal; and determining at least one sequence of the third signal based on samples of the third signal after reducing effects, to the determination, from samples of any portion of the third signal that does not overlap at least one of the first signal, the second signal, or both the first signal and the second signal.
