SYSTEM AND METHOD USING PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SYNCHRONIZATION CODES DURING CELL SEARCH

摘要

A system and method for improved cell searching includes a subframe having a Primary Synchronization Code (22), which is comment to all Node Bs in the system and is used to indicate the positions of a set of Secondary Synchronization Codes. This greatly simplifies the cell searching procedure and improves cell search performance. In one embodiment, the Primary Synchronization Code (22) is sent in the PCCPCH (12) and the Secondary Synchronization Codes the are sent in the DwPTS (14) timeslot.
