为便于理解下面对本申请中涉及到的一些名词做些说明。
本申请中,名词“网络”和“系统”可能会交替使用,“装置”和“设备”也可能会交替使用,但本领域的技术人员可以理解其含义。“通信装置”可以是可以是上述图1和图2中的网络设备(例如基站,DU、或者CU),或者终端,也可以是网络设备的部件或者终端的的部件(例如,集成电路,芯片等等),或者其他通信模块。
本申请实施例中,波束的英文可以写为beam。波束可以包括发射波束和接收波束。发射波束可以是指信号经天线发射出去后在空间不同方向上形成的信号强度的分布,接收波束可以是指从天线上接收到的无线信号在空间不同方向上的信号强度分布。可以理解的是,一个波束的一个或多个天线端口也可以看作是一个天线端口集,也就是说一个天线端口集包括至少一个天线端口。
可选地,波束可以是指具有一定能量传输指向性的预编码向量并且能够通过标识信息去标识该预编码向量,所述能量传输指向性是指在一定空间位置内,接收经过该预编码向量进行预编码处理后的信号具有较好的接收功率,如满足接收解调信噪比等,而在其他空间位置内,接收经过该预编码向量进行预编码处理后的信号的功率较低,不满足接收解调信噪比。不同的通信设备可以有不同的预编码向量,即对应不同的波束,针对通信设备的配置或者能力,一个通信设备在同一时刻可以使用多个不同的预编码向量中的一个或者多个,即同时可以形成一个波束或者多个波束。所述波束可以理解为空间资源。波束可以通过标识信息进行标识,可选地,所述标识信息可以对应配置该用户的对应的资源标识(identity,ID),比如,所述标识信息可以对应配置的信道状态信息参考信号(Channel status information Reference Signal,CSI-RS)的ID或者资源;也可以是对应配置的上行探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS)的ID或者资源。或者,可选地,所述标识信息也可以是通过波束承载的信号或信道显 示或隐式承载的标识信息,比如,所述标识信息包括但是不限于通过波束发送的同步信号或者广播信道指示该波束的标识信息,包括但是不限于通过该波束发送的同步信号块(Synchronization Signal block,SS block)标识指示该波束的标识信息(比如,SS block index),其中SS block(SSB)至少包括主同步信号(PSS,Primary synchronization signal)和/或辅同步信号(SSS,secondary synchronization signal)和/或广播信道(PBCH)。
服务小区为可用于为连接态的终端提供无线资源的小区;如果没有配置载波聚合CA或双连接DC,连接态的终端只有一个服务小区;如果连接态的终端配置了载波聚合(carrier aggregation,CA)和/或双连接(dual connectivity,DC),服务小区为至少一个小区,包括主小区和所有的辅小区SCell。主小区(Primary Cell,PCell)为工作在主频率,UE可以执行初始连接建立过程或发起连接重建立过程,或在切换过程被指示为主小区的小区。辅小区(Secondary Cell,SCell),为工作在辅频率的小区,为连接态终端提供额外的无线资源。激活的服务小区为可用于数据传输的服务小区。主辅小区(Primary Secondary Cell,PSCell)为当辅基站的辅小区发生改变,可以发起随机接入的小区。PUCCH SCell为配置了PUCCH的SCell。
为方便说明,本申请的一些术语可能会以LTE系统中的术语为例,可以理解的是,在其他的系统中也可以使用其他的术语。
对于5G或者其他演进系统或者其他类似的系统,其随机接入资源的配置或者发起随机接入的场景可能与LTE有所不同,本申请实施例所提供的通信方法和装置,可以适用于上述5G或者其他演进系统或者其他类似的系统。
本申请实施例提供了一种通信方法,如图2所示,该方法可以包括:
S201,终端从网络设备接收配置信息。
可以理解的是,终端会从网络设备处接收指示随机接入资源的配置信息,该配置信息中可以至少包括用于指示非竞争性随机接入资源的信息。本申请实施例中,对网络侧发送该配置信息的时机不做限定。
随机接入可以包括非竞争性随机接入(contention free random access)或者竞争性随机接入(contention based random access)。非竞争性随机接入例如可以包括以下过程:终端发送随机接入请求(例如前导)、基站向终端发送接入响应(例如随机接入响应(random access response,RAR)或上行授权(uplink grant)或下行分配(downlink assignment)),其中,RAR包括以下至少一种:上行授权、上行定时提前指示、临时的小区的无线网络临时标识(temporary cell radio network temporary identifier,temporay C-RNTI)。而竞争性随机接入例如可以包括以下过程:终端发送随机接入请求(例如前导)、基站向终端发送随机接入响应(例如RAR)、终端发送消息3(Msg3)(包括连接连接建立请求或终端的标识C-RNTI)、冲突解决(基站向终端发送冲突解决(contention resolution)消息,包括C-RNTI加扰的uplink grant或downlink assignment,或,消息3的部分数据或全部数据)。在例如小区变更、波束失败恢复或者终端需要获取上行定时提前(timing advance,TA)等场景下,终端都可能发起(触发)随机接 入,此处的随机接入可以是竞争性随机接入,也可以是非竞争性随机接入。
可以理解的是,终端发起竞争性随机接入还是非竞争性随机接入,可以依据于网络设备有没有配置满足条件的非竞争性随机接入资源或者是依据于网络设备的配置,本申请实施例对此不做限定。
一种可能的方式中,上述小区变更场景可以是指由切换(比如主小区(Primary Cell,PCell)的变更),或者双连接(dual connectivity,DC)下辅小区组(secondary cell group,SCG)改变等引起的终端的服务小区的变更。在该场景下,可以通过重配置消息携带指示随机接入资源的配置信息,该重配置消息例如可以是无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)消息。为便于描述,可以将指示用于小区变更的随机接入资源的配置信息,称为第一配置信息。该场景下,发送第一配置信息的网络设备可以为源基站。上述RRC消息例如可以是携带移动性控制信息(mobilitycontrolinfo)的RRC重配置消息或者是用于同步重配置的RRC消息,本申请实施例对此不做限定。
一种可能的方式中,上述的波束失败恢复场景可以是指:当该终端的某个服务小区的所有服务波束(或者称为服务SSB或服务CSI-RS)的质量不满足条件时,表示发生波束失败,为了保证终端与网络设备之间的通信,需要进行波束失败恢复,即终端从候选波束(或者称为候选SSB或候选CSI-RS)中重新确定质量满足条件的波束(或者称为SSB或CSI-RS),然后向网络设备发送波束失败恢复请求,通过该请求告知网络设备该终端选择的波束,以便基站将该选择的波束作为该网络设备与终端进行后续通信的服务波束。在该场景下,可以通过重配置消息携带指示随机接入资源的配置信息,该重配置消息例如可以是RRC消息。为便于描述,可以将指示用于波束失败恢复请求的随机接入资源的配置信息,称为第二配置信息。该场景下,发送第二配置信息的网络设备可以为服务基站。其中,终端依据服务波束的接收参数接收物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)上传输的下行控制信息(例如uplink grant或downlink assignment)。
例如,如果终端只有一个服务小区,当该服务小区的所有服务波束(或者称为服务SSB或服务CSI-RS)的PDCCH质量连续预设次数都低于预设门限,那么确定发生波束失败;如果终端有至少两个服务小区,当某个服务小区的所有服务波束(或者成为服务SSB或服务CSI-RS)的PDCCH质量连续预设次数都低于预设门限,那么确定该服务小区发生波束失败。本申请实施例对如何判断波束失败不做限定。
上述配置信息可以包括第一配置信息和/或第二配置信息,也就是说,第一配置信息和第二配置信息可以携带在相同的消息中发送。可以理解的是,第一配置信息和第二配置信息也可以在不同的消息和/或在不同的时机发送,本申请实施例对此不做限定。
一种可能的方式中,上述的终端需要获取上行TA场景可以包括:网络设备需要发送下行数据但是发现终端出现上行失步,或者需要激活辅小区等场景。在该场景下,可以是通过例如PDCCH指示(order)携带指示随机接入资源的配置信息,可以理解的是,当终端收到PDCCH order后,会发起随机接入,也就是说PDCCH order是用 于触发随机接入的下行控制信息。该场景下,发送PDCCH order的网络设备可以为服务基站。
其中,非竞争性随机接入资源是指用于终端进行非竞争性随机接入的资源,竞争性随机接入资源是指用于终端进行竞争性随机接入的资源。非竞争性随机接入资源可以是终端专用的资源,而竞争性随机接入资源可以是公共的资源,小区内的多个终端设备共享的资源。竞争性随机接入资源和非竞争性随机接入资源均是由网络侧配置,网络设备将相关的指示信息发送给终端。
可以理解的是,指示非竞争性随机接入资源的信息和指示竞争性随机接入资源的信息可以携带在相同的消息中,也可以携带在不同的消息中,本申请实施例对此不做限定。一种可能的方式中,指示竞争性随机接入资源的信息可以携带在系统信息块(SIB)中。
当指示非竞争性随机接入资源的信息和指示竞争性随机接入资源的信息携带在相同的消息中时,一种可能的方式为第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者PDCCH order中也可以包括指示竞争性随机接入资源的信息。
非竞争性随机接入资源和竞争性随机接入资源可以统称为随机接入资源,当本申请中提到随机接入资源时,可能是指非竞争性随机接入资源,也有可能是指竞争性随机接入资源。随机接入资源可以包括以下至少一种:时频域资源、码域资源。可选地,码域资源可以是前导(preamble)。可选地,可以将第二配置信息指示的非竞争性随机接入资源称为第一资源,可以将第一配置信息指示的非竞争性随机接入资源称为第二资源,将PDCCH order指示的非竞争性随机接入资源称为第三资源。网络设备具体配置的随机接入资源的信息通过配置信息传输给终端,例如,可以通过以下形式指示随机接入资源:
Figure PCTCN2019071263-appb-000001
其中,ssb通过SSB-ID标识,ra-PreambleIndex为前导索引,ra-Resources为随机接入的时频资源指示。
可选的,对于preamble,在配置信息中,也可以不通过索引的方式指示,而是用对应的序列本身来指示,也就是说,配置信息中包括的可能是preamble的索引,也可能是序列。
下文中,将第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者PDCCH order统称为配置信息。第一配置信息和第二配置信息中所指示的随机接入资源的用途是不一样的,随机接入资源的用途可以在配置信息中通过显式或者隐式的方式表示,从而可以使得终端获知 所配置的随机接入资源的用途。例如,假设第一配置信息和第二配置信息是携带在相同的消息中,那么可以对第一配置信息进行标识或者说明或者指示来表征第一配置信息的用途,例如显式的表征第一配置信息是配置用于小区变更的随机接入资源的,那么可以隐式的获知第二配置信息是配置用于波束失败恢复请求的随机接入资源的,或者显式的表征第二配置信息是配置用于波束失败恢复请求的随机接入资源的,那么可以第一配置信息是配置用于小区变更的随机接入资源的,或者,对于第一配置信息和第二配置信息的用途都进行显式的表征,本申请实施例对表征第一配置信息和第二配置信息的用途的方式不做限定,只要能使得终端获知配置的随机接入资源的用途即可。可以理解的是,也可以是通过特定的消息或者信令来传输指示随机接入资源的信息,那么可以不需要标识便可以获知配置的随机接入资源的用途,例如通过PDCCH order发送的配置信息,通过检测确定接收到的是PDCCH order便可以知道该配置信息所指示的随机接入资源是用于获取上行TA目的的随机接入资源。可以理解的是,通过表征配置信息的用途,使得终端可以获知配置的随机接入资源的用途,从而可以正确对随机接入资源进行处理。
可选地,在配置信息中,还可以指示与随机接入资源对应的波束标识,该波束标识可以包括同步信号块标识(SSB index)或者信道状态信息参考信号标识CSI-RS ID。具体波束是通过SSB index还是CSI-RS ID标识可以通过预先定义或者网络设备配置。一种可能的方式中,波束标识可以与时频域资源关联,其中与时频域资源关联可以是:与所述时频域资源中的时域资源关联,或者与所述时频域资源中的频域资源关联,或者与所述时频域资源关联。一种可能的方式中,波束标识可以与码域资源关联。一种可能的方式中,波束标识可以与码域资源以及时频域资源均关联,。
指示与随机接入资源对应的波束标识一种可能的方式可以是:在配置信息中包括与所述随机接入资源中的部分资源或者全部资源对应的波束标识,例如,以preamble为例,假设配置了三个preamble用于随机接入,分别为第一preamble,第二preamble,第三preamble,第一preamble、第二preamble和第三preamble可能分别与SSB index1,SSB index 2以及SSB index 3对应,那么在配置信息中可以通知如表1的关联关系:
表1
随机接入资源 波束标识
第一preamble SSB index 1
第二preamble SSB index 2
第三preamble SSB index 3
指示与随机接入资源对应的波束标识的又一种可能的方式可以是:在配置信息中包括随机接入资源的标识与波束标识的关联关系,例如,以随机接入资源为preamble为例,假设配置了三个preamble用于随机接入,其索引(或者标识)分别为preamble1,preamble 2,preamble 3,preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3可能分别与SSB index 1,SSB index 2以及SSB index 3对应,那么在配置信息中可以通知如表2的关联关系:
表2
随机接入资源标识 波束标识
preamble 1 SSB index 1
preamble 2 SSB index 2
preamble 3 SSB index 3
可以理解的是,对于随机接入资源为时频域资源的情况,指示的方式与表1类似,可以是所述时频域资源中的时域资源的标识与波束标识的关联关系,也可以是所述时频域资源中的频域资源的标识与波束标识的关联关系,也可以可以时频域资源的标识与波束标识的关联关系。
S202,终端根据所述配置信息,进行随机接入。
终端在确定需要发起随机接入的情况下,根据配置信息中的内容可以确定出在什么资源上进行随机接入。
如前所述,小区变更、波束失败恢复或者终端需要获取上行定时提前等场景下,终端都可能确定发起竞争性随机接入或非竞争性随机接入。
一种可能的方式中,假设是切换(基站间切换或者基站内切换)触发的小区变更,可以是终端在接收到携带移动性控制信息(mobilitycontrolinfo)的RRC重配置消息或者是用于同步重配置的RRC消息后,确定发起随机接入。该情况下,终端会根据配置信息和变更后的小区所属的基站之间进行随机接入,从而完成小区变更。例如,假设发生的是基站间切换,终端和目标基站进行随机接入,配置信息中携带了三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,且每个preamble索引关联一个SSB index:假设preamble1关联SSB index1、preamble 2关联SSB index2、preamble3关联SSB index 3,终端可以根据信号质量或者其他参数确定一个SSB(例如SSB index 2标识的SSB),通过发送与SSB index 2关联的preamble 2标识的序列来进行随机接入,如果配置信息中指示了与时域资源或者频域资源或者时频域资源关联的波束标识,preamble 2标识的序列可以是在与SSB index 2关联的时域资源或者频域资源或者时频域资源上发送,如果在配置信息中没有指示与时域资源或者频域资源或者时频域资源关联的波束标识,preamble 2标识的序列可以是在配置信息中包括的时频域资源上发送。或者,例如,假设发生的是基站间切换,终端和目标基站之间进行随机接入,配置信息中携带了三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个CSI-RS ID(preamble1关联CSI-RS ID1、preamble 2关联CSI-RS ID2、preamble 3关联CSI-RS ID3),终端可以根据信号质量或者其他参数确定一个CSI-RS(例如CSI-RS ID1标识的CSI-RS),并通过发送与CSI-RS ID1关联的preamble 1标识的序列来进行随机接入,可以理解的是,preamble 1标识的序列具体在什么时频资源上发送与前文类似,此处不再赘述。或者,假设发生的是基站间切换,终端和目标基站之间进行随机接入,配置信息中携带了三 个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个SSB ID或CSI-RS ID(例如preamble 1关联CSI-RS ID1、preamble 2关联SSB index 1、preamble 3关联CSI-RS ID2),终端可以根据信号质量或其他参数确定一个参考信号(如确定CSI-RS ID 2标识的CSI-RS),并通过发送与CSI-RS ID2关联的preamble 3标识的序列来进行随机接入,可以理解的是,preamble 3标识的序列具体在什么时频资源上发送与前文类似,此处不再赘述。对于终端确定参考信号或者同步信号块的规则本申请实施例不做限定,例如可以是选择信号质量最好的参考信号或者同步信号块。可以理解的是,以上描述中以配置信息中指示的随机接入资源为preamble为例进行说明,对于指示的随机接入资源为其他的情况,实现方式类似,所不同的是:当指示为时域资源及其对应的波束标识时,终端确定出时域资源后,终端可以进一步根据指示的频域资源得到进行随机接入的时频域资源,当指示的为频域资源及其对应的波束标识时,终端确定出频域资源后,终端可以进一步根据指示的时域资源得到进行随机接入的时频域资源。目标基站是目标小区所属的基站。上述终端和基站(目标基站或者目标小区所属的基站)之间进行随机接入,可以包括前述的非竞争性随机接入过程或者竞争性随机接入过程。
可以理解的是,本申请实施例所描述的信号质量是指用于表征信号的质量的参数,例如可以是参考信号接收功率(reference signal received power,RSRP),或者,参考信号接收质量(Reference Signal Receiving Quality,RSRQ)。
一种可能的方式中,假设是双连接辅小区组改变触发的小区变更,可以是终端根据网络设备的指示确定发起随机接入,可选地,该指示信息可以是与配置信息携带在相同的消息中。该场景下,终端根据配置信息,确定随机接入资源的方式与切换触发的小区变更下确定随机接入资源的方式类似,此处不再赘述。终端根据配置信息确定出随机接入资源后,和目标小区之间进行随机接入。其中,此处的目标小区可以辅基站或者其他基站下的小区。上述终端和目标小区之间进行随机接入,可以包括前述的非竞争性随机接入过程或者竞争性随机接入过程。
一种可能的方式中,当终端判断出发生波束失败需要进行波束失败恢复,会确定发起随机接入,对于如何判断发生波束失败,可以参考前文描述,此处不再赘述。该种情况下,终端会根据第二配置信息,和服务基站之间进行随机接入,从而实现波束失败恢复。例如,第二配置信息指示了三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个SSB index:假设preamble1关联SSB index 1、preamble 2关联SSB index 2、preamble 3关联SSB index 3),终端可以根据信号质量或者其他参数确定一个SSB(例如为SSB index 2标识的SSB),并通过发送与SSB index 2关联的preamble 2标识的序列来进行随机接入,可以理解的是,preamble 2标识的序列具体在什么时频资源上发送与前文类似,此处不再赘述。对于preamble索引与CRS-RS ID关联时,或者部分preamble索引与SSB index关联、部分preamble索引与CRS-RS ID关联时的情况,终端确定随机接入资源的方式与前文类似,此处不再赘述。上述终端和目标小区之间进行随机接入,可以包括前述的非竞争性随机接入过程或者竞争性随机接入过程。
一种可能的方式中,可以是终端在接收到PDCCH order后,确定会发起随机接入。该种情况下,终端会根据配置信息,和服务基站之间进行随机接入,从而获取上行TA。例如,通过PDCCH order指示三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个SSB index(假设preamble 1关联SSB index 1、preamble 2关联SSB index 2、preamble 3关联SSB index 3)。终端根据信号质量或者其他参数确定一个SSB(例如SSB index 2标识的SSB),并通过发送与SSB index 2关联的preamble 2标识的序列来进行随机接入,可以理解的是,preamble 2标识的序列具体在什么时频资源上发送与前文类似,此处不再赘述。对于preamble索引与CRS-RS ID关联时,或者部分preamble索引与SSB index关联、部分preamble索引与CRS-RS ID关联时的情况,终端确定随机接入资源的方式与前文类似,此处不再赘述。上述终端和服务基站之间进行随机接入,可以包括前述的非竞争性随机接入过程或者竞争性随机接入过程。
S203,当上述随机接入完成后,终端对网络设备配置的随机接入资源进行处理。
随机接入完成可以包括:随机接入成功完成(也可以称为随机接入成功)和随机接入未成功完成(也可以称为随机接入失败)。
可选地,对于非竞争性随机接入,当终端设备接收到针对接入请求的响应的时候,确定随机接入成功完成(Random Access procedure successfully completed),若接入请求(随机接入前导)的发送次数达到预设次数,还没有接收到相应的响应,那么确定随机接入未成功完成(Random Access procedure unsuccessfully completed),其中,该响应可以是随机接入响应或上行授权(例如C-RNTI加扰的上行授权的CRC(Cyclic Redundancy check,循环冗余校验))或者下行分配(例如C-RNTI加扰的下行分配的CRC(Cyclic Redundancy check,循环冗余校验))。对于竞争性随机接入,可以是冲突解决(即接收到基站发送的冲突解决消息)后确定随机接入成功完成,如果接入请求(随机接入前导)的发送次数达到预设次数,还接收到没有冲突解决消息或没有在预设时长内接收到相应的随机接入响应,那么确定随机接入未成功完成。随机接入完成包括随机接入成功完成和/或随机接入未成功完成。
在随机接入完成后,对于不同用途的非竞争性随机接入资源,可以有不同的处理方式。
例如,如果是波束失败触发的随机接入,且该随机接入完成(包括成功完成和未成功完成),对于第一资源,可以进行保留,不进行释放,例如将指示第一资源的信息保存在终端,从而终端可以在后续发生波束失败时还可以继续依据所指示的第一资源进行波束失败恢复,而不需要通过专门的信令,例如RRC重配置进行通知,从而可以在减少波束失败恢复的时延同时减少信令开销。可以理解的是,由于终端保留了指示所述第一资源的信息,那么终端可以获知哪些专用资源被保留,这些专用资源在被释放前也不会被分配给其他终端使用。
例如,配置信息中指示第一资源的信息包括三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个SSB  ID或CSI-RS ID(例如preamble 1关联CSI-RS ID1、preamble 2关联SSB index 1、preamble 3关联CSI-RS ID2),终端可以根据信号质量或其他参数确定一个参考信号(如确定CSI-RS ID 2标识的CSI-RS),并通过发送与CSI-RS ID2关联的preamble 3标识的序列来进行随机接入。当随机接入成功完成后,不丢弃preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,也就是说继续保留preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3指示的序列给所述终端使用。
在小区变更触发的随机接入完成后,可以对第二资源的部分资源或者全部资源进行释放,可选地,在处理第二资源时,可以对其他资源(例如第一资源)进行处理或不进行处理,本申请实施例对此不做限定;在由于获取上行TA触发的随机接入完成后,可以对第三资源的部分资源或者全部资源进行释放,可选地,在处理第三资源时,可以对其他资源(例如第一资源)进行处理或不进行处理,本申请实施例对此不做限定。对第二资源和第三资源的部分资源或者全部资源的释放,可以使得被释放的资源能够被重新分配,提高资源的利用率。其中,对资源进行释放(也可以叫做释放资源)是指终端丢弃指示相应资源的信息,指示资源的信息被丢弃了,也就意味着相应的资源在重新被分配给所述终端前该终端不能再使用。
例如,配置信息中指示第二资源的信息包括三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个SSB ID或CSI-RS ID(例如preamble 1关联CSI-RS ID1、preamble 2关联SSB index 1、preamble 3关联CSI-RS ID2),终端可以根据信号质量或其他参数确定一个参考信号(如确定CSI-RS ID 2标识的CSI-RS),并通过发送与CSI-RS ID2关联的preamble 3标识的序列来进行随机接入。当随机接入成功完成后,丢弃preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,那么preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3所指示的序列被释放。
例如,配置信息中指示第三资源的信息包括三个用于非竞争性随机接入的preamble索引:preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,每个preamble索引关联一个SSB ID或CSI-RS ID(例如preamble 1关联CSI-RS ID1、preamble 2关联SSB index 1、preamble 3关联CSI-RS ID2),终端可以根据信号质量或其他参数确定一个参考信号(如确定CSI-RS ID 2标识的CSI-RS),并通过发送与CSI-RS ID2关联的preamble 3标识的序列来进行随机接入。当随机接入成功完成后,丢弃preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3,那么preamble 1、preamble 2和preamble 3所指示的序列被释放。
