Publication number: 20220408478Abstract: Operation in unlicensed spectrum requires Clear Channel Assessment (CCA), where a transmitter must monitor the channel before transmitting, to ensure it is free. An exception is a brief gap that allows for Rx/Tx turn-around, so that an ACK can be transmitted following reception, without performing a new CCA. NR introduces a 2-step Random Access (RA) procedure, where MsgA includes both a PRACH and a PUSCH transmission. To minimize CCA delays in unlicensed spectrum, only those RACH opportunities (ROs) and PUSCH opportunities (POs) that result in a very small delay between the PRACH and PUSCH transmissions of MsgA should be employed. RO configurations are defined for LTE 4-step RA. Embodiments provides methods for selecting which of these be may be shared for 2-step RA, for selecting which should be used in case of collisions, for selecting ROs and POs when the configurations are not shared, and for communicating RO configurations to UEs.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2020Publication date: December 22, 2022Inventors: Jan Christoffersson, Min Wang, Stephen Grant, Robert Mark Harrison, Zhipeng Lin, Johan Rune, Johan Axnäs

Patent number: 11523437Abstract: A method may be provided to operate a wireless terminal in communication with a network node. The method may include receiving a Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH, order from the network node. The PDCCH order may include an identification for a Random Access CHannel RACH occasion to be used for a RACH message 1 preamble transmission. Moreover, the identification may include a first index that indicates a set of RACH occasions and a second index that indicates the RACH occasion associated with the set. The method may also include transmitting a Message 1 preamble to the network node using the RACH occasion responsive to the PDCCH order.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2018Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Jingya Li, Johan Axnäs, Asbjörn Grövlen, Naga Vishnu Kanth Irukulapati, Xingqin Lin, Hongxia Zhao

Publication number: 20220248459Abstract: According to some embodiments, a method for use in a wireless communication network includes a wireless device receiving, from a network, a configuration corresponding to a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH). The wireless device receives, from the network via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, a bitmap that provides an indication of time locations corresponding to synchronization signal (SS) blocks. The wireless device determines, based on the configuration and the bitmap, a time slot that does not overlap with the time locations to perform a PRACH transmission during the determined time slot.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2022Publication date: August 4, 2022Inventors: Johan Axnäs, Henrik Sahlin

Publication number: 20220225411Abstract: A method for accessing a cellular communications network in unlicensed spectrum is provided. More specifically, the method is related to performing a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) procedure prior to transmitting a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) preamble for accessing a New Radio-Unlicensed (NR-U) network. A User Equipment (UE) first performs the LBT procedure. If the LBT procedure is successful, the UE then generates a punctured PRACH preamble and transmits the punctured PRACH preamble. By puncturing the PRACH preamble, it is possible to create a gap(s) for performing the LBT procedure in a way that is backward compatible with existing NR-U specification and does not reduce a number of random access occasions in a slot or a mini-slot. As a result, it is possible to transmit PRACH preambles in consecutive random access occasions, thus helping to increase spectrum utilization and reduce latency in the cellular communications network.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2020Publication date: July 14, 2022Inventors: Johan Axnäs, Stephen Grant, Jung-Fu Cheng, David Sugirtharaj, Johan Rune
