Abstract:
Disclosed herein are apparatuses, systems, and methods for reference signal design for initial acquisition, by receiving a first primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a first secondary synchronization signal (SSS) from a first transmit (Tx) beam, in first contiguous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols of a downlink subframe. A UE can receive at least a second PSS and a second SSS from a second Tx beam in contiguous OFDM symbols of the downlink subframe. A UE can then detect beamforming reference signals (BRSs) corresponding to the first Tx beam and the second Tx beam, based on identification of physical cell ID information and timing information processed from the first PSS, the second PSS, the first SSS, and the second SSS. The UE can select the first Tx beam or the second Tx beam that was received with the highest power, based on the BRSs. Other embodiments are described.

Claim (Index 40):
A computer-readable storage medium that stores instructions for execution by one or more processors to perform operations for communication by a User Equipment (UE), the operations to configure the one or more processors to:\n receive a first primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a first secondary synchronization signal (SSS) from a first transmit (Tx) beam, in a same central physical resource block (PRB) of a first set of two contiguous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols of a downlink subframe; receive at least a second PSS and a second SSS from a second Tx beam, in a second set of two contiguous OFDM symbols of the downlink subframe, in the same central PRB as the first PSS and the first SSS; detect beamforming reference signals (BRSs) corresponding to the first Tx beam and the second Tx beam, based on identification of physical cell ID information and timing information received in the first PSS, the second PSS, the first SSS, and the second SSS, to select the one of the first Tx beam and the second Tx beam that was received with the highest power; and report a beam identifier corresponding to a Tx beam that was received with highest power, the beam identifier comprised of a resource used for transmission of the BRS with the highest power, and at least one of a BRS identifier of the BRS received with the highest power and physical cell ID information.
