Background technology
Random access procedure (Randomaccessprocedure) is for setting up subscriber equipment (UE, UserEquipment) with the uplink synchronous of base station (eNB), by configure in systems in which for using PRACH (PhysicalRandomAccessChannel in the sub-frame of uplink of Stochastic accessing, Physical Random Access Channel) send random access guiding (preamble) sequence, and receive the accidental access response (RAR of base station feedback, RandomAccessResponse), uplink synchronous is realized.Random access procedure is divided into competition Stochastic accessing and non-competing Stochastic accessing.
Non-competing random access procedure is shown in Figure 1, and it comprises: UE receives the message (Msg0) for configuring exclusive preamble and the PRACH resource that non-competing Stochastic accessing uses that eNB sends.The content of Msg0 carrying at least comprises ra-PreambleIndex (RandomAccessPreamble) and ra-PRACH-MaskIndex (PRACHMaskIndex).Ra-PreambleIndex is used to indicate dedicated preamble numbering, and ra-PRACH-MaskIndex is used to indicate PRACH resource number.UE sends the dedicated preamble sequence (Msg1) of configuration in corresponding PRACH resource to eNB according to PRACH resource number.UE is by PDSCH (PhysicalDownlinkSharedChannel, Physical Downlink Shared Channel) receive the RAR (Msg2) that eNB returns, wherein RAR is by RA-RNTI (RandomAccess-RadioNetworkTemporaryIdentifier, the wireless network of Stochastic accessing identifies temporarily) PDCCH (PhysicalDownlinkControlChannel of scrambling, Physical Downlink Control Channel) scheduling, the PDSCH that this PDCCH dispatches transmits, the RAR of multiple UE can be comprised in this PDSCH, the RAR of each UE comprises TA value and transmits uplink scheduling license (ULgrant) of (or follow-up uplink) for dispatching this UEMsg3.RA-RANTI and PRACH resource one_to_one corresponding, PRACH resource is corresponding RA-RNTI, a RA-RNTI=1+t_id+10*f_id only, wherein: t_id is the numbering of first subframe corresponding to PRACH resource, value 0≤t_id < 10; F_id is that in a subframe, PRACH resource, in the numbering of frequency domain, is numbered according to frequency domain ascending order, value (0≤f_id < 6).The UE that have sent preamble needs the PDCCH monitoring RA-RNTI scrambling in the RAR receiver window of in-system define, if detected, and comprise the preamble mark that it sends in this RAR, then UE thinks that RAR receives successfully, and apply the TA (TimeAlignment carried in this RAR, Timing Advance) carry out uplink synchronous adjustment, represent Stochastic accessing success, then random access procedure terminates.
UE needs to determine PRACH resource before sending Msg1.At LTE (LongTermEvolution, Long Term Evolution) in system, define 5 kinds of PRACH (Preamble) structures, the length to some extent difference of often kind of structure in time domain, as shown in table 1, frequency domain is all take 6 PRB (PhysicalResourceBlock, Physical Resource Block) (i.e. 72 subcarriers).For FDD (FrequencyDivisionDuplex, Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD)) system, in a subframe, there is a PRACH at the most.For TDD (TimeDivisionDuplex, time division duplex) system, 6 PRACH in a subframe, are had at most to carry out frequency division multiplexing.According to transmission density and the preambleformat (targeting sequencing form) of PRACH, 64 kinds of PRACH configurations are defined in FDD system, TDD system defines 58 kinds of PRACH configurations, often kind of PRACH configures the sub-frame set that can be used to send PRACH in a kind of preambleformat (targeting sequencing form) and a radio frames used in this system of correspondence, the PRACH configuration index (PRACHConfigurationIndex) that high-level signaling notice UE uses.
Table 1, Preamble parameter
From above flow process, in Msg2, eNB all needs to be dispatched by PDCCH by the RAR of PDSCH transmission, and transmits on PDSCH.
For LTE-A (LongTermEvolutionAdvanced, long-term evolution upgrading) system, for supporting than LTE (LongTermEvolution, Long Term Evolution) system bandwidth that system is larger, some spectrum aggregatings of existing system can be distributed to, gather into large bandwidth to use, i.e. carrier aggregation technology (CA, CarrierAggregation).Now in system, up-downgoing carrier wave can asymmetricly configure, and namely user may take N1 >=1 (N1 is parameter preset) individual carrier wave and carries out downlink transfer, and N2 >=1 (N2 is parameter preset) individual carrier wave carries out uplink, as shown in Figure 2.
In LTE-ARel-10 (version 10) CA system, up direction only supports continuous print carrier aggregation, and each UE is by base station assigns Pcell (Primarycell, main plot): a descending carrier and a up-link carrier are comprised for a Cell (community) FDD system, namely a Cell is become for a carrier wave TDD system.In LTE-ARel-10, the Stochastic accessing of CAUE occurs over just on Pcell, and all Cell use identical TA to carry out uplink synchronous adjustment.UE only needs blind check public search space on PCell, to determine the PDCCH dispatching RAR.On SCell (Secondarycell, auxiliary community), UE only needs blind check UE dedicated search space, to obtain the PDCCH for data dispatch.For the UE ability of Rel-10, CAUE in the design of physical layer PDCCH blind check number of times, not included on SCell to the blind check of public search space.
Different from LTE-ARel-10 system, LTE-ARel-11 (version 11) system needs to support more complicated carrier aggregation scene, comprising: the 1) carrier aggregation of up different frequency range; 2) the carrier aggregation deployment scheme that mixes of macro base station (MacroeNB) and RRH (RemoteRadioHead, long distance wireless head).Wherein the example of the carrier aggregation deployment scheme of macro base station and RRH mixing as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4.For Fig. 3, frequency F1 is used by macro base station, and provide grand covering, frequency F2 is used by RRH, provides the higher throughput of hot zones.UE in high-speed mobile carries out work in the frequency of F1, ensures that business continuity is capable.F1 and F2 is in different frequency ranges in frequency, and such as F1 is positioned in 800MHz or 2GHz frequency range, and F2 is positioned in 3.5GHz frequency range.In the geographic area that F2RRH covers, F2 can carry out carrier aggregation with F1.For Fig. 4, frequency F1 and F2 is used by macro base station, and due to frequency range, F2 compares F1 and has less coverage, therefore disposes RRH at the cell edge of F2 and carries out covering expansion.Cover overlapping region at F1 and F2, F1 and F2 can carry out carrier aggregation.
Because the radio signal propagation characteristic of different frequency range is different, if therefore UE sends signal to base station on the member carrier being positioned at two distant frequency ranges simultaneously, then the time that two signals arrive base stations there will be difference.In addition, according to the example in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, if UE is in the geographic area that macro base station and RRH cover jointly, and carried out the carrier aggregation of F1 and F2, then because F1 is that macro base station uses, F2 is that RRH uses, then the signal in two frequencies is through different propagation paths, and difference appears in the time that the signal causing UE simultaneously to send on F1 and F2 arrives base station.Therefore, in the carrier aggregation of different frequency range, or in the carrier aggregation deployment scenario of macro base station and RRH mixing, Pcell with Scell signal path is different can cause the transmission time different, multiple community Cell needs independently to set up and safeguards the uplink synchronous with base station, therefore need to be supported on Scell and carry out Stochastic accessing, to realize uplink synchronous adjustment.The Random Access of above-mentioned scene is not defined in current standard.
