`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`Disclosed is a data transmission method in a mobile commu(cid:173)
`nication system. The data transmission method through a
`code sequence in a mobile communication system includes
`grouping input data streams into a plurality ofblocks consist(cid:173)
`ing of at least one bit so as to map each block to a correspond(cid:173)
`ing signature sequence, multiplying a signature sequence
`stream, to which the plurality of blocks are mapped, by a
`specific code sequence, and transmitting the signature
`sequence stream multiplied by the specific code sequence to
`a rece1ver.

`
`TECHNICAL FIELD
`
`The present invention relates to a mobile communication
`system, and more particularly, to a method of expanding a
`code sequence, a structure of a random access channel and a
`method of transmitting data in a mobile communication sys(cid:173)
`tem.
`
`BACKGROUND ART
`
`A user equipment uses a random access channel (RACH)
`to access a network in a state that the user equipment is not
`uplink synchronized with a base station. A signal having
`repetitive characteristic in a time domain is used in the ran(cid:173)
`dom access channel, so that a receiver easily searches a start
`position of a transmission signal. In general, the repetitive
`characteristic is realized by repetitive transmission of a pre(cid:173)
`amble.
`A representative example of a sequence for realizing the
`preamble includes a CAZAC (Constant Amplitude Zero Auto
`Correlation) sequence. The CAZAC sequence is expressed by
`a Dirac-Delta function in case of auto-correlation and has a 35
`constant value in case of cross-correlation. In this respect, it
`has been estimated that the CAZAC sequence has excellent
`transmission characteristics. However, the CAZAC sequence
`has limitation in that maximum N-1 number of sequences
`can be used for a sequence having a length of N. For this 40
`reason, a method for increasing available bits of the sequence
`while maintaining the excellent transmission characteristics
`is required.
`Meanwhile, there are provided various methods for trans(cid:173)
`mitting data from a random access channel by using the 45
`CAZAC sequence. Of them, the first method is to directly
`interpret CAZAC sequence ID to message information.
`Assuming that data to be transmitted is a preamble, if a
`sufficient number of sequences that can be used as the pre(cid:173)
`amble are provided, message passing can be performed with 50
`only CAZAC sequence ID without additional manipulation.
`However, since a method of transmitting additional informa(cid:173)
`tion should be considered in an actual synchronized RACH,
`problems occur in that there is difficulty in realizing a suffi(cid:173)
`cient number of CAZAC sequence sets, and the cost required 55
`for search of a receiver increases.
`The second method is to simultaneously transmit CAZAC
`sequence and Walsh sequence by using a code division mul(cid:173)
`tiplexing (CDM) mode. In this case, CAZAC sequence ID is
`used as user equipment identification information, and the 60
`Walsh sequence transmitted in the CDM mode is interpreted
`as message information. FIG. 1 is a block schematic view
`illustrating a transmitter for realizing the second method.
`However, the second method has limitation in that even
`though the Walsh sequence is added to the CAZAC sequence, 65
`bits of message that can additionally be obtained are only
`log2N bits when the Walsh sequence has a length ofN.
`
`2
`The third method is to transmit CAZAC sequence and
`Walsh sequence in such a way to mix the Walsh sequence with
`the CAZAC sequence. In this case, CAZAC sequence ID is
`used as user equipment identification information, and the
`Walsh sequence is interpreted as message information. FIG. 2
`is a block diagram illustrating a data processing procedure at
`a transmitter for realizing the third method. However, accord(cid:173)
`ing to the third method, since the Walsh sequence acts as noise
`in detection of the CAZAC sequence to cause difficulty in
`10 detecting sequence ID, there is limitation in that repetitive
`sequences should be transmitted to prevent the Walsh
`sequence from acting as noise in detection of the CAZAC
`sequence.
`The fourth method is to either give orthogonality between
`15 blocks constituting a corresponding sequence by multiplying
`an exponential term by a CAZAC sequence or directly apply
`data modulation such as DPSK, DQPSK, D8PSK, etc. In this
`case, CAZAC sequence ID is used as user equipment identi(cid:173)
`fication information, and the modulated sequence is demodu-
`20 lated and then used as message information. FIG. 3A illus(cid:173)
`trates data modulation according to the former method of the
`fourth method, and FIG. 3B illustrates data modulation
`according to the latter method of the fourth.
`Furthermore, the fifth method is to transmit CAZAC
`25 sequence by attaching a message part to the CAZAC
`sequence. FIG. 4A illustrates the case where a message
`(coded bit) is attached to the CAZAC sequence used as a
`preamble, and FIG. 4B illustrates the case where a message
`(coded bit) is attached to a sequence consisting of a predeter-
`30 mined number of blocks to which orthogonality is given.
`However, the fourth method and the fifth method have a
`problem in that they are susceptible to change of channel
`condition.
`

`ferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of
`which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
`A random access channel (RACH) is used to allow a user
`equipment to access a network in a state that the user equip(cid:173)
`ment is not uplink synchronized with a base station. A random
`access mode can be classified into an initial ranging access
`mode and a periodic ranging access mode depending on an
`60 access mode to network. According to the initial ranging
`access mode, the user equipment acquires downlink synchro(cid:173)
`nization and first accesses a base station. According to the
`periodic ranging access mode, the user equipment connected
`with a network accesses the network if necessary. The initial
`65 ranging access mode is used to allow the user equipment to
`synchronize with the network while accessing the network
`and receive its required ID from the network. The periodic

`
`5
`ranging access mode is used to initiate a protocol to receive
`data from the base station or when a packet to be transmitted
`exists.
`In particular, the periodic ranging access mode can be
`classified into two types in the 3GPP LTE (long term evolu(cid:173)
`tion) system, i.e., a synchronized access mode and a non(cid:173)
`synchronized access mode. The synchronized access mode is
`used if an uplink signal is within a synchronization limit when
`the user equipment accesses the RACH. The non-synchro(cid:173)
`nized access mode is used if the uplink signal is beyond the 10
`synchronization limit. The non-synchronized access mode is
`used when the user first accesses the base station or synchro(cid:173)
`nization update is not performed after synchronization is
`performed. At this time, the synchronized access mode is the
`same as the periodic ranging access mode, and is used when 15
`the user equipment accesses the RACH for the purpose of
`notifying the base station of the change status of the user
`equipment and requesting resource allocation.
`On the other hand, the synchronized access mode alleviates
`limitation of a guard time in the RACH by assuming that the 20
`user equipment does not depart from uplink synchronization
`with the base station. For this reason, much more time-fre(cid:173)
`quency resources can be used. For example, a considerable
`amount of messages (more than 24 bits) may be added to a
`preamble sequence for random access in the synchronized 25
`access mode so that both the preamble sequence and the
`messages may be transmitted together.
`A structure of the RACH, which performs a unique func(cid:173)
`tion of the RACH while satisfYing the aforementioned syn(cid:173)
`chronized and non-synchronized access modes will now be 30
`described.
`FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a structure of
`a random access channel (RACH) used in an OFDMA sys(cid:173)
`tem. As shown in FIG. 5, it is noted that the RACHis divided
`into N number of sub-frames on a time axis and M number of
`frequency bands on a frequency axis depending on a radius of
`a cell. Frequency in generation of the RACH is determined
`depending on QoS (Quality of Service) requirements in a
`medium access control (MAC) layer. In general, the RACHis
`generated per certain period (several tens of milliseconds
`(ms) to several hundreds ofms). In this case, frequency diver(cid:173)
`sity effect and time diversity effect are provided in generating
`several RACHs and at the same time collision between user
`equipments which access through the RACH is reduced. The
`length of the sub-frame can be 0.5 ms, 1 ms, etc.
`In the RACH structure as shown in FIG. 5, a random
`sub-frame will be referred to as a time-frequency resource
`(TFR) which is a basic unit of data transmission. FIG. 6A is a
`diagram illustrating a type of sending a random access signal
`to the TFR in a time domain, and FIG. 6B illustrates a type of 50
`sending a RACH signal in a frequency domain.
`As shown in FIG. 6A, if a random access signal is gener(cid:173)
`ated in a time domain, the original sub-frame structure is
`disregarded and the signal is aligned through only the TFR.
`By contrast, as shown in FIG. 6B, in case of the synchronized 55
`random access mode, the sub-frame structure is maintained in
`the frequency domain and at the same time a random access
`signal to be transmitted to sub-carriers of each OFDM symbol
`is generated. Accordingly, orthogonality can be maintained
`between respective blocks constituting TFR, and channel 60
`estimation can easily be performed.
`FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating another example of a struc(cid:173)
`ture ofRACH used in an OFDMA system. As shown in FIG.
`7, it is noted that a preamble 'b' and a pilot 'a' are partially
`overlapped in a TDM/FDM mode and a TDM mode ofRACH 65
`burst duration of an attached wide band pilot. It is also noted
`that a pilot 'a' and a pilot 'b' are simultaneously overlapped
`
`6
`with a preamble 'a' and the preamble 'b' in the TDM/FDM
`mode and the TDM mode of an embedded wideband pilot. In
`other words, it is
