Abstract
A node of a radio access network comprises processor circuitry (30) and transmitter circuitry (34). The processor circuitry (30) generates a synchronization signal block comprising a Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) and a demodulation reference signal for the Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) from which demodulation reference signal a parameter of the radio access network can be determined. The transmitter circuitry transmits the synchronization signal block and the demodulation reference signal over a radio interface (24).
