COMMUNICATION STATION AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING ON A RANDOM ACCESS CHANNEL

摘要

Embodiments of a communication station and method for transmitting on a random access channel (RACH) in a wireless network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the communication station may configure an initial access burst for transmission on the enhanced RACH. The initial access burst may include at least one of a shortened identifier and user data. The initial access burst may be configured to be no greater than a single time slot of the enhanced RACH and may be transmitted with a timing advance to be received within the single time slot of the enhanced RACH.
