AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
In New Radio (NR) wireless communication networks, the reduced periodicity of synchronization signal block (SSB) bursts to conserve power consumption leads to ambiguity in the location of the SSB, necessitating continuous UE monitoring and increased power usage and computation.
Method used
A dual-burst synchronization signal is introduced, including an SSB identifier and offset information with the discovery reference signal (DRS) to indicate the location of the corresponding SSB, allowing the UE to monitor only during specified time windows.
Benefits of technology
This approach reduces UE power consumption and computation by enabling targeted monitoring for SSBs, balancing power savings with reduced latency.

Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a one-symbol primary synchronization signal (PSS) over a set of tones in a frequency domain. The UE may monitor for a three-symbol synchronization signal block (SSB) based at least in part on whether a group of resource blocks (RBs) includes at least one of an SSB identifier associated with the three-symbol SSB or offset information. Numerous other aspects are described.
