Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in which a system timing is estimated, derived from timing of one or more cells, a timing offset is determined for a plurality of cells relative to the estimated system timing, and signals received form the plurality of cells are processed using the timing offsets. In addition, a method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in which a carrier frequency is estimated, derived from a frequency of one or more cells, a frequency offset is determined for a plurality of cells relative to the estimated system timing, and signals received form the plurality of cells are processed using the frequency offsets.
