It's a synchronous system. It's neat how the timing of the transmission
from the handsets is being steered (by quarter symbol solution) by the
base-station such that they occur in the middle of their time-slots as
being received by the base-station. The 13 MHz (actually 26 MHz or 52
MHz in modern handsets) clock of the hand-set is steered to the
frequency of the base-station. Thus, synthonisation and synchronisation
can be achieved.
Cheers,
Magnus
