Abstract
A method is provided for determining the modulation sequence of the downlink synchronization codes. The method comprises: the method comprises a three step process: step one is to measure the phase of the downlink synchronization code. Step two is to generate an accurate of the phase of the downlink synchronization code by removing the frequency drift effect, step three is to determine whether the sequence S1 or S2 is finally detected. The method allows for high accuracy to be achieved for determination of the modulation sequence of the downlink synchronization codes.

A method of determining a phase modulation sequence of a downlink synchronization code sent by a base station, comprising steps of:
- (a) measuring a phase of a received downlink synchronization code, and
- (b) removing an impact of a phase drift caused by a frequency offset between the base station and a local oscillator thereof on the phase of the received downlink synchronization code, so that the phase modulation sequence of the downlink synchronization code sent by the base station is determined,
- wherein the step (b) comprises steps of:
- (b.1) measuring a frequency offset between the base station and a local oscillator thereof by a receiver,
- (b.2) estimating a phase drift caused by the frequency offset, and
- (b.3) subtracting the phase drift from the phase of the received downlink synchronization code, so that the phase modulation sequence of a downlink synchronization code sent by the base station is determined.
