TDM/FDM MULTIPLEXING DATA WITH SYNCHRONIZATION BLOCKS IN MULTI-BEAM TRANSMISSION

摘要

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for data transmission in synchronization slots. A method for use by a base station for data transmission in synchronization slots includes transmitting a synchronization signal (SS) burst, wherein different SS blocks of the burst are transmitted using different transmit beams and performing frequency division multiplexing (FDM) or time division multiplexing (TDM) to include one or more other types of signals that need to be multicast and are also transmitted using the different transmit beams.
