To enable efficient synchronization and/or cell acquisition, systems and methods are described for broadcast of a synchronization signal in a synchronization channel. According to an aspect, a base station may generate a synchronization signal and assign the synchronization signal to be carried on a synchronization channel that is time-division multiplexed with one or more other channels (e.g., one or more other downlink channels). The synchronization channel may be a single-carrier channel and/or a wide-band channel. The base station may transmit synchronization signal (e.g., periodically broadcast) on the synchronization channel to enable a time and/or frequency synchronization. According to an aspect, the UE may acquire synchronization information based on detection of the repeating synchronization signal. |
