Abstract

A method for synchronizing a base station to a mobile station includes transmitting a signal sequence K(i) of length n from the base station to the mobile station. The signal sequence K(i) is formed by repeating a second signal sequence element K2(k) of length n2 n1 times. The second signal sequence is modulated with a first signal sequence element K1(j) of length n1. In the method, n1 is equal to n2 and i, j and k are integers.
