Method and system for re-acquiring signals of a wireless broadcast network

摘要

The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that determines when a performance disruption indicates a loss of synchronization with a broadcast signal and, in response, initiates reacquisition of the signal. Reacquisition techniques may include identifying and decoding only select portions of header information in the broadcast signal. Reacquisition may also be initiated in response to one or more deterministic triggers and during a test mode of operation.
