Abstract
A method for transmitting a timing correction message in a wireless communication system, the method comprising, Generating the timing correction message comprising a 8-bit MessageID field and a 2-bit NumSectors field wherein, the NumSectors field indicates the number of sector records in the message and a 16 bit TimingCorrection field wherein, the TimingCorrection indicates the timing correction on the sector and last 15 bits indicate the magnitude of timing correction in units of 1/8 chips and transmitting the timing correction message over a communication link.
Claims24
A method for transmitting a timing correction message in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- generating the timing correction message comprising a message identification field and one or more instances of a sector record equivalent to a number of sectors for which the timing correction message is providing timing correction, wherein the sector record comprises a timing correction field indicating the timing correction on the sector, wherein the message identification field comprises an identifier for the message;
- and
- transmitting the timing correction message over a communication link.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a machine to perform operations, comprising:
- generating a timing correction message comprising a message identification field and one or more instances of a sector record equivalent to a number of sectors for which the timing correction message is providing timing correction, wherein the sector record comprises a timing correction field indicating the timing correction on the sector, wherein the message identification field comprises an identifier for the message;
