A composite signal includes a high power beacon signal and low power corresponding wideband synchronization signal and is communicated over a time interval exceeding a single OFDM transmission time interval. A base station transmits one or more different such composite broadcast signals in a recurring timing structure. Each different potential beacon signal, e.g., a single tone signal, is paired with a unique wideband synchronization signal. A wideband synchronization signal includes at least some predetermined null tones and at least some predetermined non-null tones. For a given wideband synchronization signal, the predetermined null tones carry predetermined modulation symbol values. A wireless terminal receives a composite signal, identifies a beacon, determines a corresponding known wideband synchronization signal, compares received to known wideband synchronization signals, and determines at least one of a timing adjustment, frequency adjustment and channel estimation.

La présente invention concerne un signal composite qui comprend un signal de balise haute puissance et un signal de synchronisation de large bande correspondant de faible puissance et qui est communiqué sur un intervalle de temps excédant un intervalle de temps de transmission OFDM unique. Une station de base transmet un ou plusieurs desdits signaux de diffusion composite différents dans une structure de synchronisation périodique. Chaque signal de balise potentiel différent, par exemple, un signal de tonalité unique, est apparié avec un signal de synchronisation de large bande unique. Un signal de synchronisation de large bande comprend au moins certaines tonalités nulles prédéfinies et au moins certaines tonalités non nulles prédéfinies. Pour un signal de synchronisation de large bande donné, les tonalités nulles prédéfinies transportent des valeurs de symbole de modulation prédéfinies. Un terminal sans fil reçoit un signal composite, identifie une balise, détermine un signal de synchronisation de large bande connue correspondant, et détermine au moins un ajustement de synchronisation, un ajustement de fréquence et une estimation de canal.
