Abstract

A mobile communication device may include a cell search circuit configured to process a first block of signal waveform data to extract a first discrete parameter set, wherein the first discrete parameter set identifies one or more first potential cells present in the first block of signal waveform data, process the second block of signal waveform data to extract a second discrete parameter set, wherein the second discrete parameter set identifies one or more second potential cells present in the second block of signal waveform data, and compare the first discrete parameter set and the second discrete parameter set to identify one or more matching cells, and an RF transceiver configured to transmit or receive radio signals based on the identification of the one or more matching cells.
