Abstract
A method and system for achieving synchronization at a local site to a wireless communication system transmitting data in a plurality of data packets distributed among a plurality of frequencies alternating in a sequence determined in accordance with at least two characteristics of said remote site by blindly determining at least one of said two characteristics are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of recording a plurality of occurrences of a selected one of the plurality of frequencies, determining the at least one first characteristic from at least one of the data packets, determining locally the at least one second characteristic wherein the determined at least one first characteristic and the at least one second characteristic match the selected frequency at each of the recorded detected occurrences, determining a time period for determining the first and second characteristics; and adjusting the at least one second characteristic by the time period.
