Abstract
A wireless network includes a base station and a user equipment. The base station is configured to wirelessly transmit radio frequency (RF) signaling representing synchronization signal block (SSB) burst comprising a set of SSBs, each SSB associated with a different beam transmitted by the base station and having a corresponding index value representing a position of the SSB in the SSB burst. The user equipment is configured to detect an SSB of the SSB burst and to identify an index value of the SSB by iteratively performing a decoding process for a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) of the SSB, each performed iteration using a different index values selected from a prioritized ordering of the set of index values.
