Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of accumulating and decoding a PBCH signal received by a 5G NR receiver, the method including: generating an inversion vector for negating at least one bit of a system frame number (SFN) included the received PBCH signal; performing accumulation over at least one frame by performing modulo addition on the generated inversion vector and the received PBCH signal; decoding the accumulated PBCH signals; and checking validity of the decode PBCH and reconstructing the SFN.
