Abstract
In one embodiment, a physical random access channel (PRACH) is used in communicating in a slotted wireless communication system. The slotted system uses repeating radio frame structure for communication. The PRACH is associated with a set of characteristics comprising: a set of channelization codes associated with the PRACH; at least one time slot associated with the PRACH; and a set of subchannels associated with the PRACH, the subchannels associated with a single time slot of the radio frames. In another embodiment, access service classes (ASCs) are separted in a wireless slotted communication system. Each ASC is associated with a unique set of channelization codes and subchannels of a physical random access channel (PRACH). The subchannels are associated with a single time slot of radio frames of the wireless slotted communication system.
Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/020,725, filed Dec. 12, 2001, which claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/256,621, filed on Dec. 19,2000, which are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth.
- The invention generally relates to wireless time division duplex (TDD) communication systems using code division multiple access. In particular, the invention relates to sub-channels for the physical random access channel (PRACH) for such systems.
- In code division multiple access (CDMA) communication systems using frequency division duplex (FDD), such as proposed for the third generation partnership project (3GPP), physical random access channels (PRACHs) are used for transmitting infrequent data packets and system control information from the user equipments (UEs) or users to the Node-B.
- In a 3GPP FDD/CDMA system, the PRACH is divided into ten (10)
millisecond radio frames 22 1 to 22 8 (22) having fifteen (15)timeslots 24, as shown in FIG. 1. Theradio frames 22 are sequentially numbered, such as numbered from 0 to 255, as a system frame number. The system frame numbers are sequentially repeated. The random access transmission starts at the beginning of a number of well-defined time intervals, denotedaccess slots 26. Therandom access transmissions 28 1 to 28 5 (28) from the users are begun in aparticular access slot 26 and continue for one ormultiple slots 26. These transmissions are sent using a randomly selected signature associated with an access service class (ASC) assigned by a radio resource controller of the network to the user. - The PRACH is used for infrequent data packets and system control information and the network uses sub-channels of the PRACH for further separation of UEs and access service classes. In the 3GPP FDD/CDMA system, each sub-channel is associated with a subset of the total
uplink access slots 26, described as follows. - Two
sequential radio frames 22 are combined into oneaccess frame 20. The access frame is divided into 15access slots 26. Eachaccess slot 26 has a duration of tworadio frame timeslots 24 as shown in FIG. 1. The duration of aradio frame 22 is shown in FIG. 1 by the dual headed arrows. The sub-channels are assigned to theaccess slots 26 by sequentially numbering the slots from 0 to 11, as shown in FIG. 1. Aftersub-channel 11 is assigned, thenext access slot 26 is numbered 0 and the numbering is repeated. Theaccess slot 26 to sub-channel numbering is repeated every 8 radio frames or 80 milliseconds (ms). This repetition can be viewed as a modulo (mod) 8 counting of the radio frame numbers. - In 3GPP FDD/CDMA, multiple PRACHs are used. Each PRACH is uniquely associated with a random access channel (RACH) transport channel and is also associated with a unique combination of preamble scrambling code, available preamble signatures and available sub-channels.
- FIG. 2 is one example of an illustration of such an association.
RACH 0 30 0 is paired with PRACH 0 32 0 through a coding block 31 0. The data received overPRACH 0 32 0 is recovered using thepreamble scrambling code 0 34 0 and the appropriatepreamble signature 38 that the data was sent. - PRACH0 32 0 is uniquely associated with
preamble scrambling code 0 34 0 and has three access service classes (ASCs), ASC0 40 0, ASC1 40 1 andASC2 40 2. Although the number of ASCs shown in this example are three, the maximum number of ASCs is eight (8). Each ASC 40 has a number of available sub-channels, available preamble signatures and a persistence factor. The persistence factor represents the persistence in retransmitting the preamble signature after a failed access attempt. In 3GPP FDD/CDMA, the maximumavailable sub-channels 36 is 12 and the maximumavailable preamble signatures 38 is 16. -
RACH 1 30 1 is paired withPRACH 1 32 1. PRACH 1 32 1 is uniquely associated withpreamble scrambling code 1 34 1 and itssub-channels 36 andpreamble signatures 38 are partitioned into fourASCs 40, ASC0 40 3, ASC1 40 4, ASC2 40 5 andASC3 40 6.RACH 2 30 2 is paired with PRACH 2 32 2. PRACH 2 32 2 usespreamble scrambling code 2 34 2, which is also used by PRACH 3 32 3. ThreeASCs 40 are available for PRACH 2 32 2, ASC0 40 7, ASC1 40 8 and ASC2 40 9. Because PRACH 2 and PRACH 3 share the preamble scrambling code, a group of partitioned off available sub-channels/available preamble signature combinations are not used for PRACH 2 32 2. The partitioned off area is used by PRACH 3 32 3. -
RACH 3 30 3 is paired with PRACH 3 32 3. PRACH 3 32 3 also usespreamble scrambling code 2 34 2 and uses ASC0 40 10 and ASC1 40 11. ASC0 40 10 and ASC1 40 11 contain the available sub-channel/signature set not used by PRACH 2 32 3. - Since each PRACH
ASC 40 is uniquely associated with apreamble scrambling code 34 and available preamble signatures set and sub-channels, the Node-B can determine which PRACH 32 and ASC 40 is associated with received PRACH data. As a result, the received PRACH data is sent to the appropriate RACH transport channel. Although each PRACH 32 is illustrated in this example by having theASCs 40 partitioned by available preamble signatures, the partitions may also be bysub-channel 36. - Another communication system proposed to use PRACHs is a CDMA system using time division duplex (TDD), such as the proposed 3GPP TDD/CDMA system. In TDD, radio frames are divided into timeslots used for transferring user data. Each timeslot is used to transfer only uplink or downlink data. By contrast, an FDD/CDMA system divides the uplink and downlink by frequency spectrum. Although the air interface, physical layer, between FDD and TDD systems are quite different, it is desirable to have similarities between the two systems to reduce the complexity at the network layers, such as
layer - Accordingly, it is desirable to have sub-channels for the RACH for TDD.
- In one embodiment, a physical random access channel (PRACH) is used in communicating in a slotted wireless communication system. The slotted system uses repeating radio frame structure for communication. The PRACH is associated with a set of characteristics comprising: a set of channelization codes associated with the PRACH; at least one time slot associated with the PRACH; and a set of subchannels associated with the PRACH, the subchannels associated with a single time slot of the radio frames.
- In another embodiment, access service classes (ASCs) are separted in a wireless slotted communication system. Each ASC is associated with a unique set of channelization codes and subchannels of a physical random access channel (PRACH). The subchannels are associated with a single time slot of radio frames of the wireless slotted communication system.
- FIG. 1 is an illustration of access slots and sub-channels for a FDD/CDMA system.
- FIG. 2 is an illustration of PRACH configurations in a FDD/CDMA system.
- FIG. 3 is an illustration of sub-channels in a time division duplex (TDD)/CDMA system.
- FIG. 4 is an illustration of PRACH configurations in a TDD/CDMA system.
- FIG. 5 is a simplified diagram of a Node-B/base station and a user equipment using a TDD/CDMA PRACH.
- Although the following discussion uses a 3GPP system for illustration, sub-channels for a TDD PRACH is applicable to other systems.
- FIG. 3 illustrates a preferred implementation of sub-channels for
timeslot 3 for PRACHs of a TDD/CDMA system. EachPRACH 48 is associated with onetimeslot number 56 and a set ofsub-channels 50 andchannelization codes 52, as shown in FIG. 4. For aparticular timeslot number 56, a sub-channel 50 is uniquely associated with aradio frame 44, as shown by double ended arrows. In a preferred implementation, such as shown in FIG. 3, each sub-channel 50 is sequentially assigned to sequential radio frames 44. To illustrate,sub-channel 0 is associated with a timeslot number of a jth radio frame, such asradio frame 0 of FIG. 4. Sub-channel 1 is associated with the same timeslot number of the next (j+1th) radio frame, such asradio frame 1. - After n radio frames, the next n frames are assigned the
same sub-channels 50. For instance,sub-channel 0 is assigned to radio frame n+j, such as radio frame n. For aparticular timeslot 56, the sub-channels 50 are assigned based on the system frame number, which is a series of repeating radio frames. A preferred scheme uses a modulo function of the system frame number (SFN) for n sub-channels. For sub-channel i,Equation 1 is used. - SFN mod n=
i Equation 1 - mod n is a modulo n function. One illustration uses a
modulo 8 function, such as perEquation 2. - SFN mod8=
i Equation 2 - As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, in a
first frame 44 0 intimeslot 3,sub-channel 0 is assigned. In asecond frame 44 1,sub-channel 1 is assigned and so on until aneighth frame 44 7 wheresub-channel 7 is assigned. Preferably, the number of sub-channels is 8,4, 2 or 1. Although FIG. 3 only illustrates sub-channel assignments fortimeslot 3, the same scheme is used on any timeslot number. - In a FDD/CDMA system, each PRACH32 is associated with a unique combination of
preamble scrambling code 34,available sub-channels 36 andavailable preamble signatures 38. One example of a potential implementation of 4 PRACHs is shown in FIG. 4. - In an analogous manner, each
PRACH 48 in a TDD system is preferably associated with a unique combination oftimeslot 56, available channelization codes 50 (preferred a maximum of 8) and available sub-channels 52 (preferred maximum of 8) as shown in FIG. 4. Thechannelization codes 52 are used by the users to transmit the uplink data. Similar to FDD, eachTDD PRACH 48 is paired with a RACH 46 transport channel via a coding block 47. FIG. 4 illustrates a general configuration for thePRACHs 48. EachPRACH 48 is associated with atimeslot 56 and a set ofavailable sub-channels 50 andavailable channelization codes 52. As shown in FIG. 4, eachPRACH 48 in a particular timeslot is assignedexclusive channelization codes 52. This allows the base station PRACH receiver to distinguish between thedifferent PRACHs 48 by knowing thechannelization codes 52 used to recover the received PRACH data. -
ASCs 54 are preferably formed by partitioning a particular PRACH'savailable sub-channels 50 andchannelization codes 52. Typically, a limit is set for the number ofASCs 54, such as eight (8).RACH 0 460 receives data overPRACH 0 480 by decoding data transmitted intimeslot 0 560 with the appropriate channelization codes ofPRACH 0 480. Theavailable sub-channels 50 andchannelization codes 52 are partitioned into threeASCs 54,ASC0 540,ASC1 541 andASC2 542. As shown, each partition is set bychannelization codes 52, although, in another implementation, the partitions may be by sub-channels 36 or a unique set of channelization code/sub-channel combinations. As a result in the present example, eachASC 54 has a unique set ofchannelization codes 52 for that PRACH 48. TheASC 54 associated with received PRACH data is determined using thechannelization code 52 used to recover the received PRACH data. -
RACH 1 46 1 receives data overPRACH 1 48 1 by decoding data transmitted intimeslot 1 56 1 usingPRACH 1'schannelization codes 52. Theavailable sub-channels 50 andchannelization codes 52 are partitioned into fourASCs 54,ASC0 54 3,ASC1 54 4,ASC2 54 5 andASC3 54 6. -
RACH 2 46 2 receives data overPRACH 2 48 2 by decoding data transmitted intimeslot 2 56 2 usingPRACH 2'schannelization codes 52. Theavailable sub-channels 50 andchannelization codes 52 are partitioned into threeASCs 54,ASC0 54 7,ASC1 54 8 andASC2 54 9, and an unavailable partition used forPRACH 3 48 3.RACH 3 46 3 receives data overPRACH 3 48 3 by decoding data transmitted intimeslot 2 56 2 usingPRACH 3'schannelization codes 52. Theavailable sub-channels 50 andchannelization codes 52 fortimeslot 2 56 2 are partitioned into twoASCs 54,ASCO 54 10 andASC1 54 11 and an unavailable partition used byPRACH 2 48 2. As shown in FIG. 4,timeslot 2 56 2 is effectively divided into twoPRACHs 48,PRACH 2 48 2 and 3 48 3, bychannelization codes 52. As a result in this example, data received intimeslot 2 56 2 is sent to theappropriate PRACH 48 based on the channelization codes used to transmit the data. Alternately in another implementation, the partition may be by sub-channels 36 or channelization code/sub-channel combinations. - As shown in the PRACH implementation of FIG. 4, the example of the TDD PRACH configuration is analogous to the example FDD PRACH configuration of FIG. 2. In TDD, each PRACH is associated with a
timeslot 56. In FDD, each PRACH is associated with apreamble scrambling code 34.TDD ASCs 54 are preferably partitioned byavailable channelization codes 52 andFDD ASCs 40 byavailable preamble signatures 38. These similarities for these examples allow for the higher layers to operate similarly between TDD and FDD. - FIG. 5 is a simplified block diagram of a TDD PRACH system. For use in sending PRACH information, such as an assigned PRACH and ASC, to the
UE 60 from thenetwork controller 62 via the Node-B/base station 58, a PRACHinformation signaling device 66 is used. The PRACH information signal passes through aswitch 70 or isolator and is radiated by anantenna 72 or an antenna array through awireless radio channel 74. The radiated signal is received by anantenna 76 at theUE 60. The received signal is passed through aswitch 78 or isolator to aPRACH information receiver 82. - To send data over the PRACH from the
UE 60 to thebase station 58, aPRACH transmitter 80 spreads thePRACH data 84 with one of the available codes for the PRACH assigned to theUE 60 and time multiplexes the spread data with the timeslot of that PRACH. The spread data is passed through aswitch 78 or isolator and radiated by anantenna 76 through awireless radio interface 74. Anantenna 72 or antenna array at thebase station 58 receives the radiated signal. The received signal is passed through aswitch 70 or isolator to aPRACH receiver 68. ThePRACH data 84 is recovered by thePRACH receiver 68 using the code used to spread thePRACH data 84. The recoveredPRACH data 84 is sent to the RACH transport channel 64 1-64 N associated with that PRACH. Thenetwork controller 62 provides PRACH information to thePRACH receiver 68 for use in recovering thePRACH data 84.
