1. A method, comprising:
receiving, from an access node, a high-speed configuration;
determining a time adjustment to an uplink timing for a device based at least in part on the high-speed configuration, wherein the time adjustment is greater than 3.5 times a basic time unit for a network configured with a downlink bandwidth greater than or equal to 10 megahertz (MHz); and
transmitting an uplink transmission based at least in part on the determined time adjustment to the uplink timing.
