PREAMBLE SEQUENCING FOR RANDOM ACCESS CHANNEL IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A system and method for initializing a system communication without previous reservations for random access channel (RACH) access includes a first step of defining at least one spread sequence derived from at least one constant amplitude zero autocorrelation sequence. A next step includes combining the spread sequence with a Walsh code to form an extended spread sequence. A next step includes using the extended spread sequence in a preamble for a RACH. A next step includes sending the preamble to a BTS for acquisition. A next step includes monitoring for a positive acquisition indicator from the BTS. A next step includes scheduling the sending of a RACH message. A next step includes sending the RACH message.
