Abstract
A synchronization method and apparatus for synchronizing a receiver, such as a radiotelephone operable in a cellular communication system with a transmitter. Synchronization sequences are transmitted as parts of a control signal to the receiver. The synchronization sequences are formed of either a dotting sequence or a set of m-sequences. Such synchronization sequences are of high margins and also permit synchronization of the user terminal responsive to a reduced number of calculations.
