Abstract
In one example embodiment, the method includes determining, by a first device, a timing of a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal to be transmitted by a second device, determining, by the first device, a timing of a measurement gap for a user equipment served by the first device, the measurement gap being a period of time during which the user equipment searches for the primary and secondary synchronization signals from the second device, and instructing, by the first device, the user equipment to search for the primary and secondary synchronization signals from the second device at the determined timing of the measurement gap.
