SMALL CELL SYNCHRONIZATION

Techniques described herein may be used to distribute timing information to small cell devices. For example, in response to powering on, a small cell device may automatically receive timing information from a base station of a wireless telecommunications network. The small cell device may use the timing information to set an internal clock of the small cell device. The small cell device may automatically connect to other small cell devices via a device-to-device (D2D) connection, and may communicate the timing information to the other small cell devices.
