Communication apparatus is disclosed which is suitable for communicating with a mobile communication device in a communication system which uses a plurality of radio frames wherein each radio frame is subdivided in the time domain into a plurality of subframes, each subframe is subdivided in the time domain into a plurality of slots, and each slot is subdivided in the time domain into a plurality of symbols. The communication apparatus operates a communication cell, generates discovery signals, for use in a cell search procedure, each discovery signal comprising a pair of synchronisation signals and a further signal, and transmits each synchronisation signal and the further signal in a respective symbol of a radio frame. The symbol in which the further signal is transmitted separated, in the time domain, by no more than half a radio frame from at least one of said pair of synchronisation signals. |
