Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un système de communication de pré-5ème génération (5G) ou 5G, apte à prendre en charge des débits de données supérieurs à ceux d'un système de communication de 4ème génération (4G), tel qu'un système d'évolution à long terme (LTE). L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de configuration de ressources d'accès aléatoire, un procédé d'accès aléatoire, et un dispositif. Le procédé de configuration de ressources d'accès aléatoire consiste à : (A) configurer des formats de préambule pour des terminaux d'utilisateur à l'intérieur d'une couverture de station de base selon une plage de fréquences de porteuse de la station de base; (B) configurer des ressources de canal d'accès aléatoire physique pour les terminaux d'utilisateur à l'intérieur de la couverture de station de base; (C) configurer des groupes de ressources de préambule pour les terminaux d'utilisateur à l'intérieur de la couverture de station de base; et (D) informer les terminaux d'utilisateur à l'intérieur de la couverture de station de base des formats de préambules, des ressources de canal d'accès aléatoire physique et des réserves de ressources de préambule configurés. Le procédé et le dispositif selon l'invention peuvent configurer des formats de préambule appropriés pour les terminaux d'utilisateur sur la base de bandes de fréquences de fonctionnement de la station de base, et satisfaire ainsi différentes exigences dans différentes bandes de fréquences de fonctionnement.
