Wireless network and wireless access terminals using enhanced SYNC-ID parameter

摘要

A mobile station capable of determining a SYNC_ID parameter for a base station serving said mobile station comprises: (i) a memory capable of storing prefix information and an associated SYNC_ID parameter; (ii) a transceiver capable of receiving identity information from the base station and transmitting the SYNC_ID parameter to the base station; and (iii) a controller capable of comparing the prefix information with the identity information, and in response to a match between the prefix information and the identity information, retrieving the SYNC_ID parameter associated with the prefix information.
