Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a communication network node in a communication network system and, more particular, to a communication network node allowing for enabling auto-tuning of parameters used during random access procedures as well as a method for such enablement.
- the demand for wireless data services, such as text messaging (SMS), multi-media messaging (MMS), mobile video and IPTV, demanding higher bandwidth is growing quickly.
- the third generation partnership project (3GPP) is developing the third generation mobile systems based on evolved GSM core networks and the radio access technology UMTS terrestrial radio access (UTRA) and has come up with a new orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) based technology through the long term evolution (LTE) work which provides a very efficient wireless solution.
- OFDMA orthogonal frequency division multiple access
- LTE long term evolution
- the OFDMA based air interface is often referred to as the evolved UMTS terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN).
- the random access serves as an uplink control procedure to enable the UE to access the network. Since the initial access attempt cannot be scheduled by the network, the RA procedure is by definition contention based. Collisions may occur and an appropriate contention-resolution scheme needs to be implemented. Including user data on the contention-based uplink is typically not spectrally efficient due to the need for guard periods and retransmissions. Therefore, for LTE it has been decided to separate the transmission of the random access burst (preamble), whose purpose is to obtain uplink synchronization, from the transmission of user data.
- preamble preamble
- the LTE RA procedure serves two main purposes: • It lets the UE align its UL timing to that expected by the eNode B in order to minimize interfering with other UEs transmissions.
- UL time alignment is a requirement in E-UTRAN before data transmissions may commence.
- the RA will also be used when the UE has lost the uplink synchronization or when the UE is in an idle or a low-power mode.
- the basic RA procedure is a four-phase procedure, as outlined in fig. 2, and is as follows:
- phase 1 the UE 18 transmits a random access preamble (step 21 ), allowing the Node B 15 to estimate the transmission timing of the UE.
- Uplink synchronization is necessary as the UE otherwise cannot transmit any uplink data;
- phase 2 the network transmitting a timing advance command to correct the uplink timing, based on the timing of arrival measurement in the first step.
- phase 2 also assigns uplink resources and temporary identifier to the UE to be used in phase 3 of the random access procedure;
- Phase 3 consists of signalling from the UE 18 to the network using the UL-SCH similar to normal scheduled data. A primary function of this message is to uniquely identify the UE 18. The exact content of this signalling depends on the state of the UE 18, e.g., whether it is previously known to the network or not;
- phase 4 is responsible for contention resolution in case multiple UEs tried to access the system on the same resource.
- the UE Prior to sending a preamble, the UE shall synchronize to the downlink transmissions and read the Broadcast Control Channel (BCCH).
- BCCH Broadcast Control Channel
- the BCCH will reveal where the RA time slots are located, which frequency bands may be used and which preambles (sequences) are available.
- the UE will send the preamble.
- the preamble sequence implicitly includes a random ID which identifies the UE.
- LTE provides for each cell 64 such random IDs and thus 64 preambles.
- the UE randomly selects one of them.
- the group of sequences allocated to a cell is partitioned into two subgroups.
- the UE can give a single-bit indication of its resource requirement and/or link quality.
- the particular sequence used for the preamble is randomly selected within the desired subgroup. This sequence implicitly contains a random ID which serves as a UE identifier.
- the eNode B estimates the UL timing of the UE based on the timing of the received preamble.
- the UE waits for a RA Response message on the DL- SCH, the DL assignment which is indicated on the L1/L2 control channel (DPCCH).
- the RA Response message is transmitted semi-synchronously (i.e. within a window) to the reception of the RA Preamble in order to allow the scheduler more flexibility.
- the RA Response contains:
- RNTI Radio Network Temporary Identifier
- the UE shall send a new preamble at the next RA time slot. It shall select new, random parameters for the preamble sequence and the non- synchronized RA frequency band. Furthermore, the UE will increase the power level of the preamble to obtain a power ramping procedure similar as used in WCDMA. Phase 3 - First scheduled UL transmission
- the UE In Phase 3, the UE provides the network with a unique identifier in the message it transmits on UL-SCH according to the grant contained in the RA Response.
- the type of UE identifier e.g. C-RNTI, TMSI, IMSI or IMEI, depends on to which extent the UE is already known in the network.
- the message is an RRC Connection Request message.
- the UE identifier is the C-RNTI and is signalled by the MAC layer.
- the transmission uses HARQ.
- the purpose of the fourth phase is to resolve contention. Note that, from the second step, multiple UEs performing simultaneously random access attempts using the same preamble listen to the same response message and therefore have the same temporary identifier. Hence, in the fourth phase, the eNode B echoes the UE identity provided by the UE in Phase 3. Only a terminal which finds a match between the identity received in the fourth step and the identity transmitted as part of the third step will declare the random access procedure successful. This terminal will also transmit a hybrid ARQ acknowledge in the uplink. For non-initial access, i.e. when the UE is already RRC_CONNECTED, the UE identity is reflected on the L1/L2 control channel. If the UE has not yet been assigned a C-RNTI, the temporary identity from the second step is promoted to the C-RNTI, otherwise the UE keeps its already assigned C-RNTI.
- Terminals which do not find a match between the identity received in Phase 4 and the respective identity transmitted as part of Phase 3 are considered to have failed the random access procedure and need to restart the random access procedure with Phase 1 ; selecting new random parameters for the preamble sequence and the RA frequency band. No hybrid ARQ feedback is transmitted from these terminals.
- a dedicated preamble is reserved and assigned to the UE under consideration.
- Dedicated Preamble assignment for HO is handled by RRC whereas preamble assignment for DL data arrival is handled by MAC.
- the network knows to which UE this preamble was assigned and can already at the time of detection of this preamble determine the identity of the UE. Thus no contention resolution is needed and the delay before data transmission can be resumed is reduced.
- Random Access Back-Off procedure For the event of Random Access overload, a Random Access Back-Off procedure is supported. This procedure prevents immediate new Random Access attempts which would only worsen a collision situation.
- a single RA opportunity consists of a time slot and a fixed bandwidth.
- the RA time slot length 7 RA shall accommodate the preamble sent by the UE and the required guard period (GP) to take into account the unknown uplink timing.
- Fig. 3 shows the access burst timing for two UEs 18a and 18b where the preamble is denoted 31 and the guard period (GP) is denoted 32.
- the timing misalignment amounts to 6.7 ⁇ s/km.
- 3GPP has decided for a minimum 7 RA of 1 ms.
- the preamble length is then 800 ⁇ s plus a cyclic prefix of around 102.5 ⁇ s.
- a guard time of 97.5 ⁇ s suffices for cell radii up to 15 km.
- RAN1 has defined additionally 3 RA preamble formats which require a 7 RA of 2 ms or even 3 ms. These larger slots are created by the eNode B by not scheduling traffic in the consecutive sub- frame ⁇ ). Those extended preambles contain repetitions of the 800 ⁇ s long part and/or a longer cyclic prefix.
- the short RA preamble only spans 133 ⁇ s. Because of this very short duration the preamble will most likely not contain a cyclic prefix but a technique called overlap-and-add will be used to enable frequency-domain processing. At the time of writing many details regarding applicability and performance of this short RA are still open.
- the bandwidth of a RA opportunity is 1.08 MHz (6RB).
- the effective bandwidth utilized by the RA preamble is 1.05 MHz leaving small spectral guard bands on each side. This is necessary since RA and regular uplink data are separated in frequency- 5 domain but are not completely orthogonal.
- RA opportunities do not occur simultaneously in different frequency bands but are separated in time. This spreads out processing load in the RA receiver.
- 3GPP defines RA configurations determining how often RA opportunities occur. In total 16 10 such configurations are defined, ranging from one RA opportunity every 20 ms (very low RA load) to one every 1 ms (very high RA load).
- not all sub-frames are DL sub-frames reducing sub-frames that can be allocated to RA.
- multiple RA opportunities 15 can be scheduled in a single sub-frame.
- the RA opportunity hops in frequency-domain. No final decision has been made on the frequency hopping period, currently 10 ms and 40 ms are considered. For FDD RA 20 opportunities are restricted to the outermost 6 RBs of the physical uplink shared channel at each band edge.
- the TDMA/FDMA structure of the RA opportunities in FDD is visualized in fig. 4 where the time and frequency configuration of the PRACH, PUSCH, and PUCCH in the LTE uplink 25 is shown.
- three RA opportunities with 1 ms length exist in each frame.
- only one 1.08 MHz band is allocated to RA at each time whereas several bands are possible in case of TDD.
- the RA opportunities always occur at the band edges of the physical uplink shared channel directly adjacent to the physical uplink control channel.
- Fig. 5a shows the detailed timing of the basic random-access preamble 31.
- CP cyclic prefix
- Figure 5b to Figure 5d show the extended preamble formats.
- the format of fig. 5b has an extended CP 51 and is suited for cell radii up to approximately 100 km. However, since no repetition occurs this format is only suited for environments with good propagation conditions.
- the format of fig. 5c contains a repeated main preamble 31 and a cyclic prefix 51 of approximately 200 ⁇ s. With a RA opportunity length of 2 ms the remaining guard period is also approximately 200 ⁇ s. This format supports cell radii of up to approximately 30 km.
- the format of fig. 5d also contains a repeated main preamble 31 and an extended CP 51. Using a RA opportunity length of 3 ms this format supports cell radii of up to approximately 100 km.
- the format of fig. 5d contains a repeated preamble 31 and is therefore better suited for environments with bad propagation conditions.
- a sequence that has ideal (periodic) ACF and CCF properties is the Zadoff- Chu sequence.
- a Zadoff-Chu sequence of length N can be expressed, in the frequency domain, as
- u is the index of the Zadoff-Chu sequence within the set of Zadoff-Chu sequences of length N.
- root sequence - multiple preamble sequences can be derived by cyclic shifting. Due to the ideal ACF of Zadoff-Chu sequence multiple mutually orthogonal sequences can be derived from a single root sequence by cyclic shifting one root sequence multiple times the maximum allowed round trip time plus delay spread in time-domain. The correlation of such a cyclic shifted sequence and the underlying root sequence has its peak no longer at zero but at the cyclic shift. If the received signal has now a valid round trip delay - i.e.
- Fig. 6a shows the correlation peak when the UE is close to Node B and fig. 6b shows the correlation peak when the UE is almost at the cell border.
- 65 is the time delay which indicates the round trip delay and the arrows indicates the zones 0 - 5 indicating transmitted sequences.
- Zadoff-Chu sequences creates an additional correlation peak in time-domain.
- a frequency offset has to be considered high if it becomes substantial relative to the RA sub-carrier spacing of 1250 Hz, e.g. from 400 Hz upwards.
- the offset of the second correlation peak relative to the main peak depends on the root sequence.
- An offset smaller than T C s may lead to wrong timing estimates, whereas values larger than T C s increase the false alarm rate.
- LTE has a high-speed mode (or better high frequency offset mode) which disables certain cyclic shift values and root sequences so that transmitted preamble and round trip time can uniquely be identified. Additionally a special receiver combining both correlation peaks is required. For cells larger than approximately 35 km no set of 64 preambles exists that allows unique identification of transmitted preamble and estimation of propagation delay, i.e. cells larger than 35 km cannot be supported in high speed mode.
- the random access preamble sequences are ordered according to a specified table.
- the table was designed by first separating all PRACH sequences into two groups based on the QPSK cubic metric (CM) value using a fixed 1.2 dB threshold.
- CM quadrature metric
- the sequences with low cubic metric are more suitable to assign to large cells than the sequences with high cubic metric.
- S max maximum allowed cyclic shift
- the RACH sequences needs to be configured: •
- the set of contention based RACH preambles used by a cell is broadcasted on the downlink BCCH. It is signalled as a first root sequence index and cyclic shift value per pre-amble range (random-high, random-low).
- a cell needs a set of dedicated RACH preambles to be used for non-contention based RACH.
- the different root sequences have different envelope variations.
- a large cell where the UEs risk being power limited on the RACH, shall be assigned a set of root sequences that have less envelope variations than a small cell. •
- large secondary peaks can occur in the RACH sequence correlation detector. Because of this not all cyclic shifts are used in case of high speed mode.
- one objective with the present invention is to provide an improved method and communication network node for enabling auto-tuning of preamble sequences used during random access procedures when user equipments are accessing a communication network system comprising radio base stations each serving at least one cell and with which said user equipments are communicating on uplink and downlink channels.
- this objective is achieved through a method as defined in the characterising portion of claim 1 , which specifies that auto-tuning of preamble sequences used during random access procedures is enabled by a method which performs the steps of: using an initial set of random access channel preamble sequences in one cell of a radio base station; collecting statistics on random access channel usage and information on identified random access channel preamble sequences potentially conflicting between neighbours of said radio base station; optimizing said set of random access channel preamble sequences using said collected statistics; and, replacing said initial set of random access channel preamble sequences with said optimized set of random access channel preamble sequences.
- this objective is achieved through an arrangement as defined in the characterising portion of claim 11 , which specifies that auto-tuning of preamble sequences used during random access procedures is enabled by a communication network node comprising means for using an initial set of random access channel preamble sequences in one cell of a radio base station; means for collecting statistics on random access channel usage and information on identified random access channel preamble sequences potentially conflicting between neighbours of said radio base station; means for optimizing said set of random access channel preamble sequences using said collected statistics; and, means for replacing said initial set of random access channel preamble sequences with said optimized set of random access channel preamble sequences.

- Figure 9 is a simplified block diagram of an inventive user equipment and radio base station.
- a communication system such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system is shown in fig. 1 , including a Radio Access Network (RAN), comprising at least one Radio Base Station (RBS) (or eNode B) 15a, 15b and 15c.
- the eNode Bs are connected over an interface such as the S1 -interface 17 to at least one server gateway and mobility management entity node (S-GW/MME) 10a and 10b.
- S-GW/MME node handles control signalling for instance for mobility, and is connected to external networks (not shown in fig. 1 ) such as the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) or the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), and/or a connectionless external network as the Internet.
- PSTN Public Switched Telephone Network
- ISDN Integrated Services Digital Network
- the RAN provides communication and control for a plurality of user equipments (UE) 18 (only one shown in fig. 1 ) and each RBS 15a - 15c is serving at least one cell 19 through and in which the UEs 18 are moving.
- the RBSs 15a - 15c are communicating with each other over a communication interface 16, such as X2.
- the UEs each uses downlink (DL) channels 12 and uplink (UL) channels 13 to communicate with at least one RBS over a radio or air interface.
- the communication system is herein described as a LTE system.
- the skilled person realizes that the inventive method and arrangement work very well on other communications systems as well.
- the user equipments may be mobile stations such as mobile telephones ("cellular" telephones) and laptops with mobile termination and thus can be, for example, portable, pocket, hand-held, computer-included or car-mounted mobile devices which communicate voice and/or data with the RAN.
- One basic design principle behind the invention is to only coordinate the usage of RACH root sequences per frequency band on a central level, e.g. the network management system (NMS) or the operating and support system (OSS).
- NMS network management system
- OSS operating and support system
- a central entity is made responsible for ensuring that all RACH pre-ambles used by a cell on a specific frequency band are locally unique in the vicinity of that cell. Even though it is possible for two adjacent cells to use the same RACH sequences as long as the RACH time/frequency slots to not coincide, this division enables localized optimization and adaptation of all other RACH parameters.
- Another basic design principle is to avoid using cell planning tools to set the RACH preamble sequences and instead rely on measurements performed on the RACH by the eNB and/or the UEs and on neighbour cell relation information.
- RACH parameter auto-tuning it is needed to circumvent the apparent "chicken and egg" problem, i.e. that in order to perform these measurements it is first needed to assign the RACH preamble sequences.
- an automatic neighbour cell relation (ANCR) algorithm is made use of to detect and configure neighbour cell relations, then it is not possible to use NCR lists to configure initial RACH parameters since initially the NCR lists of a new cell will be empty.
- a boot-strapping procedure is needed that ensures that a new cell is initialized with locally conflict free RACH pre-ambles and for this a central entity (located in e.g. OSS or NMS) is relied upon.
- a cell is assigned a large number of root sequences. Either a simple rule is used that decides the number of initial root sequences based on e.g. base station type (e.g. pico, micro, macro), or other known parameters such as output power, antenna tilt, antenna height (e.g. small, medium, large). Or it is simply decided that each new cell shall always start with the maximum number of root sequences (64). • If it is expected that there is a slightest possibility that large frequency offsets may be observed on the RACH then enabling the high speed mode may be used at the start.
- base station type e.g. pico, micro, macro
- other known parameters such as output power, antenna tilt, antenna height (e.g. small, medium, large).
- each new cell shall always start with the maximum number of root sequences (64).
- CM cubic metric
- RACH preamble sequences The basic principle behind the over provisioning of RACH preamble sequences is thus to start with a simple and sloppy algorithm that produces an initial set of locally conflict free RACH preamble sequences. This makes it possible to start up the new cell and to start to collect information about parameters that affects the final choice of RACH preamble sequences.
- Fig. 7 shows an example of a multi-vendor scenario where the cells 19 with an asterix, * , are provided by one vendor and the cells without asterix are provided by another vendor.
- All radio base stations 15, such as eNB, from a particular vendor are connected to an associated operation and support system (OSS) 75a and 75b respectively.
- the OSS nodes 75a and 75b are connected via an open interface, Itf-N, 73 to a network management system (NMS) node 72.
- NMS network management system
- the OSSs 75a and 75b are connected to each other via an open interface, Itf-p2p, 74.
- fig. 7 For clarity reason only one cell 19 and one RBS 15 are denoted in fig. 7.
- Each RBS 15 is communicating with one or more UEs 18 on uplink 13 and downlink 12 channels. Also for clarity reasons, only one UE is illustrated in fig. 7.
- the NMS 72 handles the coordination of RACH boot strapping root-sequences using coarse geographical location, e.g. region, and information about the cell (macro/micro/pico).
- the OSSs 75a and 75b handle the coordination of RACH root sequences using NCR information.
- the UEs 18 may observe the following:
- Contention i.e. the probability that two UEs address the same pre-amble at the same time.
- the eNB can not detect such RACH collisions but the UE can, based on the contention resolution message (message 4 in fig. 2). In case UE report different probability of contention on different RACH pre-ambles this might be an indication that some of the RACH pre-ambles are conflicting with RACH preambles used in other cells.
- Doppler The Doppler shift observed by the UEs could provide input to an algorithm that decides if RACH high speed mode shall be used or not. Note however that the eNB are also capable of determining the Doppler shift of the received signals from the UEs.
- Neighbouring cells If an automatic neighbour cell relation (ANCR) algorithm is used then initially the neighbour cell relation list of the new cell is typically empty. Eventually the ACNR will find all neighbouring cells and it is possible to check what RACH preamble sequences that are used in neighbouring cells and avoid selecting these in the final preamble selection of the new cell.
- ANCR automatic neighbour cell relation
- Delay of received RACH pre-ambles The distribution of received RACH delays can be used to determine the minimum required cyclic shift.
- Doppler estimation Based on the location of the secondary peak in the RACH correlation detector the eNB can estimate the Doppler of the UEs. This information can be used to determine if the RACH high speed mode needs to be used or not.
- a localized optimization of the parameters affecting the final selection of RACH preamble sequences is performed. For example since RACH pre-amble sequences derived from the same root sequence are orthogonal while RACH pre-amble sequences derived from different root sequences are non-orthogonal, there is an incentive to use as few root sequences as possible in each cell. No central coordination is required to reduce the number of root sequences used in a cell if the initial set of root sequences is locally conflict free and the optimized set of root sequences is a sub-set of the initial set. Thus it may be delegated to the OSS or to the eNB to decide how many root sequences that are needed in a cell based on measurements only from that particular cell.
- root sequences that become unused in a cell after optimization are given back to the central coordinating entity so that they may be used in other cells.
- the selection of which root sequences that shall be used to derive the 64 RACH preamble sequences consists of the following steps:
- Step 1 Determine if the high speed RACH flag needs to be set or not.
- the high speed RACH flag needs to be set in case the UEs in the cell often experience high
- Step 2 Determining of the required cyclic shift ⁇ / C s in the cell. This is typically done by observing the probability distribution of the observed delays of all RACH attempts from all UEs. Preferably the eNB should only count received correlation peaks that resulted in UEs successfully completing a random access.
- the delay statistics of the received RACH preambles is considered stable after a certain time or when a certain number of RACH attempts have been observed. Then the required cyclic shift ⁇ / C s can be selected as the smallest possible value such that X% (where a typical value of X could be e.g. 99.9) of the observed delays is smaller than ⁇ / C s-
- Step 3 Determination of the final RACH preamble sequences.
- This step can be implemented in different ways with different degrees of optimization: o Step 3a: The eNB may select a sub-set of the initial RACH preamble sequences. Typically the first root sequence is used to derive as many RACH pre-amble sequences as possible while assuring that each correlation zone is at least of size NCS and, in case the high speed flag was set, that the maximum correlation zone is not larger than the maximum high speed value of each particular root sequence. Any eventual root sequences that are left over after such a local optimization in the eNB should be returned back to the central coordination unit in the OSS or in the NMS.
- Step 3b Once a new cell is operational and it has established relations to neighbouring cells it is possible for a localized algorithm (located in e.g. the OSS or the eNB) to find a new set of locally non-conflicting root sequences that are not necessarily a sub-set of the initial set of root sequences. Either a cell asks its neighbour cells about which root sequences they use on a given frequency band using the X2 or the S1 interfaces. Additionally, a cell may ask all neighbouring cell about all RACH root sequences that any of their neighbouring cells currently uses. This procedure would require standardization of messages for communicating information about RACH root sequence usage over the X2 and S1 interfaces. Also, once a cell changes root sequences an update notification message is required.
- a localized algorithm located in e.g. the OSS or the eNB
- Step 3c Another alternative is that root sequence change is coordinated by the OSS or the NMS.
- the central RACH preamble sequence coordination unit i.e. the OSS or the NMS selects the set of RACH preamble sequences to use in the new cell.
- NCS can be assigned to root sequences that have a low cubic metric.
- Cells that have reported that the high speed flag needs to be set can be assigned root sequences supporting a large maximum cyclic shift in high speed operation. This step may involve observing that the most appropriate RACH sequences for the new cell is actually already in use by another neighbouring cell and that these RACH preamble sequences first must be made available by a reallocating procedure.
- a first OSS is responsible for allocating locally conflict-free root sequences based on neighbour cell lists, root sequence and coarse geographical information from a managed eNodeB, and on corresponding information about eNodeBs managed by a second OSS.
- the information from a second OSS is shared via an open interface upon request from the first OSS. Either, the information is explicit as the set of used root sequences from a particular eNodeB, or aggregated as the set of root sequences used by any eNodeB in a set, or within a given distance from a given location.
- the information may be associated with a validity time, within which the information can be expected to be static.
- the NMS is responsible for allocating an initial set of root sequences that are guaranteed to be locally conflict free and that this initial set of root sequences is selected by the NMS without making use of NCR list information.
- a set of boot-strapping sequences may be defined on a central level (e.g. NMS). These sequences are then only used to initiate a new base station and are then released and replaced by another set of sequences after localized optimization. Messages for requesting and releasing boot strapping pre-amble sequences must then be standardized (e.g. between the NMS and the OSS nodes).
- each eNodeB is associated to a coarse geographical region, either directly, or implicitly via its tracking area, which in turn is associated to a coarse geographical region.
- a new eNodeB When a new eNodeB is deployed, it is associated to a first geographical region and a first OSS from which it will be managed. If this first geographical region includes eNodeBs that are connected to a second OSS, or if the first geographical region is adjacent to a second geographical region, which includes eNodeBs that are connected to a second OSS, then the initial set of root sequences of the new eNodeB needs to be coordinated by NMS.
- NMS either informs the first OSS about a set of root sequences the first OSS is allowed to select from (white listing) when initiating the new eNodeB, or a set of root sequences the first OSS is not allowed to select from (black listing). If there are no expected relations between the new eNodeB to be deployed, and eNodeBs in the second OSS, then the first OSS can allocate root sequences to the new eNodeB without restrictions from NMS.
- OSS informs NMS about the change. Changes, which mean that the number of root sequences allocated to a particular eNodeB are decreased can be made without permission from NMS. Changes, which involves previously not used root sequences needs to be authorized by NMS. NMS can also inform OSS about what eNodeBs OSS is free to manage without NMS coordination, and what eNodeBs OSS needs NMS coordination when managing.
- the procedure for enabling auto-tuning of preamble sequences used during random access procedures when user equipments are accessing a communication network system comprising radio base stations each serving at least one cell and with which said user equipments are communicating on uplink and downlink channels, whereby said random access procedure is started when said user equipments send a random access preamble derived from a root sequence to said radio base stations, shown in fig. 8, is as follows: • using an initial set of random access channel (RACH) preamble sequences when said random access procedure is started (step 81 ) in one cell of a radio base station. The used initial set is assigned to said radio base station from a first communication network entity; • measuring/collecting statistics on a random access channel (RACH) usage using said assigned initial random access channel (RACH) preamble sequences (step 82);
