A first wireless device may transmit a preamble of a device-to-device wireless communication with a second wireless device. The preamble may include a first synchronization sequence. The first synchronization sequence may include multiple repetitions of a basis sequence, multiplied by a cover code. The basis sequence may span multiple orthogonal frequency division multiplexing symbols.
