ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, method, apparatus, means, and computer program code for determining an arrival time for a synchronization burst provided by a base terminal station. According to embodiments of the present invention, a mobile station may use the training sequence code of a synchronization burst and additional data from the synchronization burst to conduct a correlation in order to determine the arrival time of the synchronization burst. That is, the mobile station may use left side data bits and/or the right side data bits of the synchronization burst in addition to the training sequence code in the correlation to determine a more accurate arrival time or time stamp for the synchronization burst.
