METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FRAME TIMING ACQUISITION IN EVOLVED UNIVERSAL TERRESTRIAL RADIO ACCESS (EUTRA)
First Claim
1. A method for processing communication signals, the method comprising:
- determining a received secondary synchronization sequence (SSS) based on a selected cyclic prefix length and synchronization of a primary synchronization sequence (PSS);
processing a first portion of information associated with said received SSS separately from a second portion of information associated with said received SSS; and
determining a frame timing and/or base station identifier, by comparing said processed first portion of information with said processed second portion of information.

Abstract
Aspects of a method and system for frame timing acquisition in evolved universal terrestrial radio access (EUTRA) may include determining a received secondary synchronization sequence (SSS) based on a selected cyclic prefix length and on synchronization of a primary synchronization sequence (PSS). A first portion of information associated with the received SSS may be processed separately from a second portion of information associated with the received SSS. A frame timing and/or base station identifier may be determined by comparing the processed first portion of information with the processed second portion of information. The cyclic prefix length may be selected from a finite set of possible cyclic prefix lengths. The cyclic prefix length may be, for example, 9 samples or 32 samples. The primary synchronization sequence synchronization may be determined via correlation.
