there are Two relevant cell search procedures exist in LTE:
Initial synchronization;
and New cell identification.
In both scenarios, the synchronization procedure makes use of two specially designed physical signals which are broadcast in each cell: the Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), and the Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS).
