Abstract
According to some embodiments, a method of synchronizing a wireless device with a network node comprises receiving a radio subframe transmitted from the network node. The MBSFN radio subframe comprises a first Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) associated with a first Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol and paired with a first Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS) associated with a second OFDM symbol. The method further comprises detecting the first PSS and detecting the first SSS within the radio subframe. The method determines system information associated with the network node based on the detected PSS and SSS. The radio subframe is transmitted from the network node as a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Services Single-Frequency Network (MBSFN) subframe.
