Signaling of random access preamble sequences in wireless networks

摘要

Transmission of random access preamble structures within a cellular wireless network is based on the use of cyclic shifted constant amplitude zero autocorrelation (“CAZAC”) sequences to generate the random access preamble signal. A pre-defined set of sequences is arranged in a specific order. Within the predefined set of sequences is an ordered group of sequences that is a proper subset of the pre-defined set of sequences. Within a given cell, up to 64 sequences may need to be signaled. In order to minimize the associated overhead due to signaling multiple sequences, only one logical index is transmitted by a base station serving the cell and a user equipment within the cell derives the subsequent indexes according to the pre-defined ordering. Each sequence has a unique logical index. The ordering of sequences is identified by the logical indexes of the sequences, with each logical index uniquely mapped to a generating index. When a UE needs to transmit, it produces a second sequence using the received indication of the logical index of the first sequence and an auxiliary parameter and then produces a transmission signal by modulating the second sequence.

1. Method for transmission of sequences by a user equipment (UE) in wireless networks, comprising:
receiving at the UE an indication of a logical index for a first sequence from a base station (eNB), wherein the first sequence belongs to a pre-defined set of sequences; receiving at the UE an indication of an auxiliary parameter from the eNB; producing at the UE a second sequence using the received indication of the logical index of the first sequence and the auxiliary parameter, wherein the second sequence is selected from an ordered group of sequences, and wherein the ordered group of sequences is a proper subset of the pre-defined set of sequences; and producing, at the UE, a preamble signal to be transmitted to the base station (eNB), by modulating the second sequence; wherein each sequence of the pre-defined set of sequences is a Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequence; wherein each ZC sequence has a unique generating index u; and wherein ordering of the pre-defined set of sequences is made by mapping generating indexes below sequentially to consecutive logical indexes:13, 826, 6, 833, 7, 832, 4, 835, 5, 834, 10, 829, 8, 831, 415, 424, 12,827, 14, 825, 419, 420, 1, 83815, 824, 412, 427, 17, 822409, 430, 20, 819, 21, 81824, 815, 23, 816, 408, 431406, 433, 30, 809, 28, 811, 404, 435, 405, 43435, 804, 402, 437, 37, 802, 34, 805, 33, 806, 401, 438400, 439, 398, 441, 39, 800, 43, 796, 42, 797, 40, 79953, 786, 54, 785, 393, 446, 394, 445, 49, 790, 396, 443, 50, 78958, 781, 59, 780, 65, 774, 392, 447, 62, 777, 64, 775, 389, 450, 66, 773,391, 448, 55, 784, 61, 778, 56, 783, 60, 77970, 769, 73, 766, 74, 765, 68, 771, 383, 456, 381, 458, 75, 764, 81, 758,71, 768, 380, 45992, 747, 377, 462, 375, 464, 82, 757, 88, 751, 87, 752, 370, 469, 96, 743,97, 742, 372, 467, 374, 465, 378, 461, 89, 750, 95, 744, 84, 755, 373, 466120, 719, 105, 734, 367, 472, 357, 482, 118, 721, 368, 471, 121, 718, 108,731, 101, 738, 359, 480, 114, 725, 362, 477, 123, 716, 104, 735, 119, 720,366, 473, 369, 470, 127, 712138, 701, 134, 705, 144, 695, 152, 687, 156, 683, 347, 492, 348, 491, 141,698, 154, 685, 353, 486, 352, 487, 157, 682, 153, 686, 135, 704, 139, 700,143, 696, 345, 494, 145, 694, 133, 706, 344, 495, 351, 488, 130, 709, 128,711, 142, 697, 151, 688, 137, 702, 355, 484, 148, 691, 129, 710, 140, 699168, 671, 178, 661, 329, 510, 179, 660, 339, 500, 201, 638, 173, 666, 187,652, 200, 639, 163, 676, 166, 673, 175, 664, 322, 517, 172, 667, 184, 655,182, 657, 321, 518, 333, 506, 327, 512, 319, 520, 189, 650, 171, 668, 199,640, 167, 672, 158, 681, 191, 648, 169, 670, 186, 653, 170, 669, 323, 516,160, 679, 330, 509220, 619, 206, 633, 205, 634, 225, 614, 218, 621, 234, 605, 318, 521, 313,526, 221, 618, 224, 615, 311, 528, 215, 624, 212, 627, 211, 628, 308, 531,306, 533, 316, 523, 228, 611, 217, 622, 203, 636, 304, 535, 202, 637, 303,536, 236, 603, 302, 537, 233, 606, 305, 534, 210, 629280, 559, 265, 574, 267, 572, 266, 573, 287, 552, 286, 553, 242, 597, 261,578, 293, 546, 288, 551, 268, 571, 276, 563, 241, 598, 255, 584, 289, 550,254, 585, 300, 539, 257, 582, 281, 558, 292, 547, 294, 545, 299, 540, 248,591, 250, 589, 297, 542, 298, 541, 275, 564, 237, 602, 244, 595, 249, 590,247, 592, 273, 566, 269, 570, 272, 567, 291, 548, 271, 568259, 580, 264, 575, 285, 554, 283, 556, 279, 560, 240, 599, 258, 581, 296,543, 270, 569, 274, 565, 252, 587, 262, 577, 290, 549, 256, 583, 245, 594,260, 579, 253, 586, 263, 576, 251, 588, 284, 555, 282, 557, 295, 544, 301,538, 243, 596, 277, 562, 239, 600, 238, 601, 278, 561, 246, 593213, 626, 312, 527, 314, 525, 208, 631, 310, 529, 231, 608, 204, 635, 222,617, 207, 632, 307, 532, 223, 616, 317, 522, 216, 623, 227, 612, 309, 530,235, 604, 209, 630, 229, 610, 214, 625, 315, 524, 226, 613, 219, 620, 232,607, 230, 609177, 662, 337, 502, 196, 643, 328, 511, 180, 659, 335, 504, 198, 641, 324,515, 336, 503, 159, 680, 181, 658, 190, 649, 161, 678, 331, 508, 165, 674,188, 651, 325, 514, 197, 642, 183, 656, 320, 519, 193, 646, 334, 505, 164,675, 174, 665, 340, 499, 195, 644, 338, 501, 332, 507, 192, 647, 326, 513,194, 645, 176, 663, 162, 677, 185, 654150, 689, 350, 489, 342, 497, 343, 496, 341, 498, 354, 485, 149, 690, 136,703, 346, 493, 146, 693, 132, 707, 155, 684, 131, 708, 349, 490, 147, 692111, 728, 126, 713, 102, 737, 109, 730, 363, 476, 361, 478, 112, 727, 106,733, 360, 479, 356, 483, 125, 714, 122, 717, 103, 736, 358, 481, 110, 729,117, 722, 113, 726, 116, 723, 100, 739, 107, 732, 124, 715, 365, 474, 364,475, 115, 724371, 468, 99, 740, 98, 741, 85, 754, 90, 749, 86, 753, 91, 748, 83, 756,93, 746, 376, 463, 94, 745385, 454, 384, 455, 72, 767, 76, 763, 80, 759, 78, 761, 379, 460, 69, 770,79, 760, 382, 457, 77, 76263, 776, 67, 772, 387, 452, 57, 782, 388, 451, 390, 449, 386, 45352, 787, 395, 444, 48, 791, 46, 793, 47, 792, 51, 788397, 442, 399, 440, 44, 795, 38, 801, 41, 798, 45, 79432, 807, 36, 803, 403, 43626, 813, 29, 810, 27, 812, 31, 808407, 432, 22, 817, 25, 814410, 429, 19, 820, 18, 82116, 823, 411, 428417, 422, 11, 828, 9, 830, 3, 836, 418, 421, 2, 837, 416, 423, 413, 426,414, 425.
