Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided that performs timing acquisition for multiple radio terminals. According to one aspect of the present invention the invention includes receiving a sequence of symbols modulated onto a carrier frequency over a channel and demodulating the symbols using a clock frequency. The invention further includes determining a frequency offset of the received symbols with respect to the clock frequency and applying the determined frequency offset to adjust the clock frequency.
