Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method of determining frame timing of one or more signals from one or more respective transmitters. The method determining first observation windows that correspond to first candidate segments of the one or more signals; calculating a first set of accumulated signal patterns, each accumulated signal pattern of the first set of accumulated signal patterns being calculated based on signal patterns in a respective subset of the first candidate segments of the one or more signals; determining whether a first set of accumulated synchronization words derived from the first set of accumulated signal patterns is consistent with a first set of corresponding benchmark synchronization words; and determining the frame timing of the one or more signals based on timing of the first observation windows when the first set of accumulated synchronization words is consistent with the first set of corresponding benchmark synchronization words.
