Abstract

Systems and methods for signaling or receiving cell identity, network identity, and/or Frequency Hopping (FH) patterns are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operating a wireless device in a wireless communication network includes obtaining a signal transmitted from a network node and determining a physical cell identifier, ID, of the network node based on the signal. The method also includes determining a FH pattern of the network node based on the determined physical cell ID of the network node. In this manner, the wireless device can efficiently determine the FH pattern used and may be able to determine if the wireless device should connect to the network node.
