The present invention provides a communication system, device and method of reverse link symbol timing synchronization of transmited signals to facilitate reverse link timing synchronization. A base unit transmits a forward link signal, receives a reverse link signal, and determines a timing offset for signals received on a reverse link timing synchronization channel, wherein the reverse link synchronization channel comprises a plurality of adjacent reverse link carrier frequencies that are utilized by a multicarrier subscriber unit to facilitate reverse link symbol timing synchronization. A plurality of multicarrier subscriber units receive a forward link signal and transmit a reverse link symbol timing synchronization burst on a reverse link timing synchronization channel wherein the reverse link timing synchronization channel comprises a plurality of adjacent reverse link carrier frequencies that are utilized by each subscriber unit, and adjusts a timing reference for transmitting signals to facilitate reverse link timing synchronization.
