Abstract
To reduce latency in accessing a wireless communication system, which is highly desirable for time sensitive applications such as push-to-talk call, a wireless device performs an overhead update procedure and a transmit clock synchronization procedure in parallel. The overhead update procedure obtains up-to-date overhead information from the system, such as access parameters used to access the system. The transmit clock synchronization procedure updates transmit timing to current system time, e.g., resets a long or scrambling code and pseudo-random number (PN) sequences used to transmit signaling to the system. After the overhead information has been updated and the transmit clock synchronization procedure has been completed, the wireless device performs an access probe procedure to send signaling (or access probes) to the system to attempt to access the system.
