Abstract

A synchronization signal is received at a user equipment from a base station. The user equipment synchronizes clocks between the user equipment and the base station using a combination of sample and sub-sample timing determined based at least in part on the synchronization signal. At a base station, the base station transmits toward a user equipment a synchronization signal. The base station synchronizes clocks between the base station and the user equipment using a combination of sample and sub-sample timing determined based on at least the synchronization signal. Methods, apparatus, software, and computer program products are disclosed.
