    Patent number: 11552704
    Abstract: Synchronizing a pulse position modulation (PPM) signal. A method includes performing a first synchronization operation by receiving a first series of symbols. The symbols in the first series are transmitted with a pulse in a known slot, such that the symbols comprise pulses that are substantially equally spaced in time from adjacent symbols. The first synchronization operation includes identifying when each pulse is received for each of the symbols and using information identifying when each pulse is received for each of the symbols in the first series of symbols to identify symbol and slot boundaries for the pulse position modulation signal. The method further includes performing a second synchronization operation by receiving a second series of symbols transmitted in a known pattern, and identifying the known pattern in the received second series of symbols to identify a frame boundary.
