MAC) ID爛包含識 別發送F-RACH訊息之特定使用者終端的MAC ID。各使用 者終端於一通信交談期開始時在該系統中註冊,且獲指定 一唯一 MAC ID。然後,在該交談期期間,此MAC ID係用 以識別該使用者終端。該尾位元欄包含零之一群組,用以 於該F-RACH訊息結束時將一捲積編碼器重設至一已知狀 態。 圖3B顯示一時槽結構3 10之一具體實施例,其可用於該 S-RACH。該S-RACH區段亦劃分成若干S-RACH時槽。各 TDD訊框中可用的S-RACH時槽之具體數目係一可配置參 數,其係於該BCH訊息(其係在該同一 TDD訊框中發送)中傳 達。在一項具體實施例中,各S-RACH時槽具有一固定持續 時間,其係定義為等於(例如)四OFDM符號週期。 在一項具體實施例中,一S-RACHPDU可於各S-RACH時 槽中發送。該S-RACH PDU包含一參考部分,然後是一 O:\88\88965.DOC -16- 1343724 S-RACH訊息。在一項具體實施例中,該參考部分包含二先 導OFDM符號,其係用以方便該S-RACH發送之擷取與偵測 以及協助該S-RACH訊息部分之相干調變。該等先導OFDM 符號可如下文所述產生。 表3列出一示範性S-RACH訊息格式之欄。 表3 : S-RACH訊息 攔名 長度(位元) 說明 MAC ID 10 指定給使用者終端的臨時ID CRC 8 該S-RACH訊息之CRC值 尾位元 6 捲積編碼之尾位元 對於表3所示之具體實施例,該S-RACH訊息包含三欄。 係如上述的MAC ID欄及尾位元欄。該S-RACH可藉由未註 冊使用者終端使用以存取該系統。對於一未註冊使用者終 端之第一次系統存取,並未指定一唯一 MAC ID給該使用者 終端。在此情形中,該未註冊使用者終端可利用為註冊目 的而保留之一註冊MAC ID,直到獲指定一唯一 MAC ID為 止。該註冊MAC ID係一特定值(例如0x0001)。循環冗餘 檢查(cyclic redundancy check ; CRC)欄包含用於該 S-RACH 訊息之一 CRC值。該存取點可利用此CRC值以決定該接收 之S-RACH訊息是否得到正確解碼。因此,該CRC值係用以 使該S-RACH訊息偵測錯誤的可能性最小化。 表2及3顯示F-RACH及S-RACH訊息之格式的具體實施例 。亦可為該等訊息定義其他格式,例如減少攔、增加欄及 /或採用不同的欄,且此係在本發明之範疇内。例如,該 O:\88\88965.DOC -17· S-RACH訊息可定義為包含一時槽ID欄,其承載特定 S-RACH時槽(於其中發送該S-RACH PDU)之索引。再例如 ,該F-RACH訊息可定義為包含一 CRC欄。 圖3A及3B顯示該F-RACH及該S-RACH之特定結構。亦可 為該F-RACH及該S-RACH定義其他結構,且此係在本發明 之範疇内。例如,該F-RACH及/或該S-RACH可定義為具有 可配置時槽持續時間,其可於該BCH訊息中傳達。 圖3A及3B亦顯示該F-RACH及該S-RACH PDU之具體實 施例。亦可定義其他PDU格式,且此亦係在本發明之範疇 内。例如,次頻帶多工化亦可用於該S-RACH PDU。另外, 各PDU之該等部分的大小可定義為不同於上述者。例如, 該S-RACH PDU之參考部分可定義為僅包含一先導OFDM 符號。 將F-RACH及S-RACH用於隨機存取可提供多項優點。第 一,將使用者終端分成二群組可提高效率。能滿足時序及 接收SNR要求的使用者終端可利用更有效的F-RACH以執 行隨機存取,而所有其他使用者終端可藉由S-RACH來支援 。F-RACH可作為時槽化阿羅哈通道操作,吾人熟知其效率 較未時槽化阿羅哈通道高出大約一倍。不能補償其RTD之 使用者終端僅限於利用S-RACH,故不會干擾F-RACH上的 使用者終端。 第二,對於F-RACH及S-RACH,可使用不同的偵測臨界 值。此種彈性使系統可達成不同目的。例如,F-RACH之偵 測臨界值可設定為較S-RACH之偵測臨界值為高。此即使該 O:\88\88965.DOC -18- 系統有利於經由F-RACH存取該系統的高效使用者終端(即 具有較高接收SNR),此可提供較高的總體系統輸出量。 S-RACH之偵測臨界值可設定為較低,以允許所有使用者終 端(具有特定極小接收SNR)存取該系統。 第三,對於F-RACH及S-RACH,可使用不同的設計及PDU 。對於上述具體實施例,該F-RACH PDU包含一 OFDM符號 ,而該S-RACH PDU包含四OFDM符號。PDU大小不同係因 F-RACH之使用者與S-RACH之使用者所發送的資料不同, 且亦係因F-RACH與S-RACH之編碼方案及所需的接收 SNR不同。總體上,該F-RACH之效率大約為該S-RACH的 八倍,其中因數四來自該較短的PDU大小,而因數二來自· 該F-RACH之時槽化性質。因此,對於相同的區段持續時間 ,該F-RACH能支援的使用者終端之數目係該S-RACH所能 支援者的八倍。從另一角度看,若一 F-RACH區段及一 S-RACH區段均支援相同數目的使用者終端,則該F-RACH 區段之持續時間係該S-RACH區段之持續時間的1/8。 2.隨機存取程序 該等使用者終端可利用該F-RACH或該S-RACH,或利用 二者,以存取該系統。開始時,未在該系統中註冊之使用 ‘ 者終端(即未獲指定唯一MAC ID之使用者終端)利用該 ’ S-RACH以存取該系統。一旦註冊,該等使用者終端即可 利用該F-RACH及/或該S-RACH以存取該系統。 因F-RACH及S-RACH使用不同的設計,故成功偵測 F-RACH上之一發送所需的接收SNR較成功偵測S-RACH上 O:\88\88965.DOC -19 - 1343724 之一發送所需者為高。因此,不能以足夠的功率位準發送 以達到F-RACH所需的接收SNR之一使用者終端可預設利 用S-RACH。另外,若一使用者終端在F-RACH上連續嘗試 特定次數後未能存取該系統,則其亦可預設利用S-RACH。 圖4顯示一程序400之一具體實施例的流程圖,其係藉由 一使用者終端執行以利用F-RACH及/或S-RACH來存取該 系統。首先,決定該使用者終端是否在該系統中註冊(步驟 412)。若答案為否,則利用S-RACH執行系統存取,且程序 前進至步驟430。否則,再決定該使用者終端所達到的該接 收SNR是否大於或等於F-RACH所需的接收SNR(即該 F-RACH臨界SNR)(步驟414)。若該使用者終端之接收SNR 係未知值,則步驟4 14可跳過。若步驟414之答案為否,則 該程序亦前進至步驟430。 若該使用者終端已註冊且滿足該F-RACH臨界SNR要求 ,則執行一 F-RACH存取程序以嘗試存取該系統(步驟420) 。完成該F-RACH存取程序(其一項具體實施例係如下文參 考圖5所述)之後,決定存取是否成功(步驟422)。若答案為 是,則宣佈存取成功(步驟424),且該程序結束。否則, 該程序前進至步驟430以嘗試經由S-RACH存取。 若該使用者終端未註冊,不能達到該F-RACH臨界SNR, 或經由F-RACH獲得存取不成功,則其執行一 S-RACH存取 程序以嘗試存取該系統(步驟430)。完成該S-RACH存取程 序(其一項具體實施例係如下文參考圖6所述)之後,決定 存取是否成功(步驟432)。若答案為是,則宣佈存取成功( O:\88\88965.DOC -20- 步驟424)。否則,言 然後’在任一 、一佈存取失敗(步驟434) 情形中,該程序均結束。 為簡明起見,圖4你·-上 山 不之具體實施例假設:若該使用者饮 &已經在該系統中註 ’、 冊’則其具有最新RTD資訊。一般而
言’若該使用者終端係不㈣(即處於—固^位置),或若 “’、線通道未發生明顯變化’則此假設為真。對於一行動 使用者終端,在系統存取之間,《在存取嘗試之間,兮 咖可能發生明顯變化。因此,程序可更改以包含決定 該使用者終端是否具有最新㈣資訊之一步驟。此決定可 基於(例如)從上次系統存取以來消逝之時間、在上次系統存 取期間所觀察到的通道特性等來作出。
一般而言,有多種類型的隨機存取通道可用,且首先係 基於該使用者終端的操作狀態而選用__隨機存取通道。該 操作狀態可藉由(例如)該使用者終端的注冊狀態、該接收 SNR目刖RTD ^訊等來定義。該使用者終端可使用多重隨 機存取通道以執行系統存取,一次使用一通道。 A.

S-RACH程序 在一項具體實施例中’該S_RACH使用一阿羅哈隨機存取
O:\88\88965.DOC -24- 1343724 方案,藉此使用者終端於隨機選擇的S-RACH時槽中發送以 嘗試存取該系統。即使使用者終端嘗試於特定的S-RACH時 槽上發送,該S-RACH上的該等發送之發送時序亦未假設得 到RTD補償。因此,當使用者終端對其RTD不具有良好的估 計時,該S-RACH之特性與一未時槽化阿羅哈通道之特性相 似0 圖6顯示一程序430a之一具體實施例的流程圖,其係藉由 該使用者終端執行以利用S-RACH來存取該系統。程序430a 係圖4之步驟430所執行的該S-RACH存取程序之一項具體 實施例。 於在S-RACH上進行第一次發送之前,該使用者終端初始 化用於S-RACH上之發送的各種參數(例如存取嘗試數目 、初始發送功率等)(步驟6 1 2)。然後,該程序進入一迴路 620。 對於S-RACH上之各發送,該使用者終端處理該BCH以為 目前TDD訊框獲得S-RACH之相關系統參數,諸如可用的 S-RACH時槽數目及該S-RACH區段之開始等(步驟622)。然 後,該使用者終端隨機選擇其中一可用S-RACH時槽,以發 送一 S-RACH PDU(步驟 624)。該 S-RACH PDU 包含一 ** S-RACH訊息,其具有表3所示之該等欄。若該使用者終端 · 已在該系統中註冊.,則該RACH訊息包含該指定MAC ID, 否則該RACH訊息包含該註冊MAC ID。然後,該使用者終 端於該選擇之S-RACH時槽中將該S-RACH PDU發送至該 存取點(步驟626)。若該使用者終端知道該RTD,則其將據 O:\88\88965.DOC -25- 1343724 此調整其發送時序以考慮該RTD。 該存取點接收且處理該S-RACH PDU,恢復該S-RACH訊 息,且利用包含於該訊息中的CRC值檢查該恢復之訊息。 若該CRC失敗,則該存取點丟棄該S-RACH訊息。若該CRC 通過,則該存取點獲得包含於該恢復訊息中的該MAC ID且 確認接收到該S-RACH PDU。 於發送該S-RACH PDU之後,該使用者終端決定是否接 收到對於該發送之PDU的一確認(步驟628)。若答案為是, 則該使用者終端轉變至「活動」狀態(步驟630),且該程 序結束。否則,該使用者終端假設該存取點未接收到該 S-RACH PDU,且重新開始在該S-RACH上執行存取程序。 對於各後續存取嘗試,該使用者終端首先更新該等 S-RACH發送參數(例如遞增該計數器,調整該發送功率等 )(步驟634)。然後決定是否超過該S-RACH上之最大允許存 取嘗試數目(步驟636)。若答案為是,則該使用者終端保持 .「存取」狀態(步驟638),且該程序結束。否則,該使用者 終端決定於發送該S-RACH PDU以執行下一存取嘗試之前 需等待的時間量。該等待時間可如上文對圖5之說明來決定 。該使用者終端將等待此時間量(步驟640)。於等待該隨機 選擇等待時間之後,該使用者終端藉由處理該BCH訊息再 次決定目前TDD訊框之S-RACH參數(步驟622),隨機選擇用 於發送之一 S-RACH時槽(步驟624),且於該隨機選擇之 S-RACH時槽中發送該S-RACH PDU (步驟626)。 上述S-RACH存取程序繼續執行,直至(1)該使用者終端 O:\88\88965.DOC -26- 1343724 從該存取點接收到一確認,或(2)已超過該最大允許存取嘗 試數目為止。 C. RACH確認 在一項具體實施例中,為確認正確接收到一 F/S-RACH PDU,該存取點在該BCH訊息中設定一 F/S-RACH確認位元 ,且於該FCCH上發送一 RACH確認。對於F-RACH及S-RACH ,可分別使用分離的F-RACH及S-RACH確認位元。在該BCH 上設定該F/S-RACH確認位元與於該FCCH上發送該RACH 確認之間可能有一延遲,其可用以考慮排程延遲等。該 F/S-RACH確認位元防止該使用者終端重複嘗試,且允s午未 成功使用者終端快速再嘗試。 於該使用者終端發送該F/S-RACH PDU之後,其監視該 BCti及該FCCH以決定其PDU是否已為該存取點所接收。該 使用者終端監視該BCH以決定該對應的F/S-RACH確認位 元是否設定。若此位元已設定,其表示對於此及/或其他 使用者終端的一確認可於該FCCH上發送,則該使用者終端 進一步處理該FCCH以獲得該RACH確認。否則,若此位元 未設定,則該使用者終端繼續監視該BCH或重新開始其存 取程序。 該FCCH係用以承載對於成功存取嘗試的確5忍。各RACH 確認皆包該MAC ID,其係與該確認所為之發送的該使用者 終端相關聯。可使用一快速確認以告知該使用者終端:其 存取請求已接收到,但未與一FCH/RCH資源分配相關聯。 一基於分配的碏認係與一 FCH/RCH分配相關聯。若該使用 -27-

O:\88\88965 DOC •28- 1343724 未註冊使用者終端之發送可能得不到RTD補償,故到達 該存取點時可能不與一 S-RACH時槽邊界對準。作為該存取 /註冊程序之部分,該RTD係決定且提供給該使用者終端 用於後續上行鏈路發送。該RTD可以各種方式決定,其中 一些方式係如下文所述。 在一第一方案中,該S-RACH時槽持續時間係定義為大於 該系統中所有使用者終端的最長預期RTD。對於此方案, 各發送之S-RACH PDU將從該發送所預期的該同一 S-RACH時槽開始接收。如此即不會有關於關於何S-RACH 時槽係用以發送該S-RACH PDU之歧義。 在一第二方案中,該RTD係藉由該存取及註冊程序逐部 分決定。對於此方案,該S-RACH時槽持續時間可定義為小 於該最長預期RTD。然後,於該預期S-RACH時槽之後的零 、一或多重S-RACH時槽時接收一發送S-RACH PDU。該RTD 可劃分成二部分:(1)一第一部分,即S-RACH時槽之整數 部分(該第一部分可等於〇、1、2或其他值)’以及(2)—第 二部分,即S-RACH時槽之分數部分。該存取點可基於該接 收S-RACH PDU來決定該分數部分。在註冊期間,該使用者 終端之發送時序可調整以補償該分數部分,使該使用者終 端之發送到達時與一 S-RACH時槽邊界對準。然後,在該註 冊程序期間,該第一部分可決定且報告給該使用者終端。 在一第三方案中,該S-RACH訊息係定義為包含一時槽ID 欄。此欄承載特定S-RACH時槽(於其中發送該S-RACH PDU)之索引。然後,該存取點將能基於該時槽ID欄中包含 0:\88''88965.D0C -29- 1343724 的該時槽索引決定該使用者終端之RTD。 該時槽ID攔可以各種方式實施。在一第一實施中,該 S-RACH訊息持續時間增加(例如,從2增加至3 OFDM符號) ,同時保持相同的碼率。在一第二實施中,該S-RACH訊息 持續時間保持不變,但碼率增加(例如,從1/4碼率增加至1/2 碼率),此將容許更多的資訊位元。在一第三實施中,該 S-RACH PDU持續時間保持不變(例如4 OFDM符號),但該 S-RACH訊息部分加長(例如,從2加長至3 OFDM符號), 且該參考部分縮短(例如,從2縮短至1 OFDM符號)。 縮短該S-RACH PDU之參考部分會降低該參考之接收信 號品質,此即會增加未偵測到一 S-RACH發送之可能性(即 更高的遺失偵測可能性)。在此情形中,該偵測臨界值(其係 用以指示一 S-RACH發送是否存在)可減小,以達到理想的 遺失偵測可能性。較低的偵測臨界值會增加在不存在 S-RACH發送時宣佈接收到一 S-RACH發送之可能性(即較 高的假警告可能性)。然而,可利用各S-RACH訊息中包含 的CRC值以達到一可接受的假偵測可能性。
在一第四方案中,該時槽索引係嵌入該S-RACH訊息之 CRC值中。一S-RACH訊息之資料(例如,表3所示之具體實 施例中的MAC ID)以及該時槽索引可提供給一 CRC產生器 用以產生一 CRC值。然後,為該S-RACH訊息發送該MAC ID及CRC值(但非該時槽索引)。在該存取點,利用該接收 之S-RACH訊息(例如該接收MAC ID)及一預期時槽索引以 產生用於該接收訊息之一 CRC值。然後,將該產生之CRC O:\88\88965.DOC •30· 1343724 值與該接收之S-RACH訊息中的該CRC值相比較。若該CRC 通過,則該存取點宣佈成功,且繼續處理該訊息。若該CRC 失敗,則該存取點宣佈失敗,且忽略該訊息。 E.
