The present invention is a extended range concentric cell base station and a method for extending a cell size or access range without incurring ASIC correlator re-design. This is accomplished with a concentric cell base station design that incorporates multiple timing protocols. The concentric base station has associated a micro cell and a macro cell, wherein the micro and macro cells use a different timing protocol that will cause signals transmitted by mobiles within their respective cells to be received within the confines of search windows associated with the timing protocols. |
