1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a network entity, comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to cause the network entity to:
transmit, to a user equipment (UE) that performs a synchronization scan, a synchronization signal on a frequency location, of a plurality of frequency locations, of a band associated with a first numerology and a second numerology for synchronization,
wherein frequency locations, of the plurality of frequency locations, are indicated by a synchronization raster of the band that identifies a spacing of the plurality of frequency locations,
wherein the synchronization scan is performed with regard to a first set of frequency locations, of the plurality of frequency locations, associated with the first numerology,
wherein the synchronization scan is performed with regard to the first set of frequency locations using a first pattern identified in stored data known to the network entity,
wherein the synchronization scan is performed with regard to a second set of frequency locations, of the plurality of frequency locations, associated with the second numerology, and
wherein the synchronization scan is performed with regard to the second set of frequency locations using a second pattern identified in the stored data; and communicate with the UE.
