`
`‘I-hese phases are overlapping and iterative. As an example. requirements can be
`added. changed. or dmwed during the later phases if the technical solutions call
`for it. Likewise, the technical solution in the detailed specifications can change
`due to problems found in thetestingand verifieationphase.
`
`Standardization starts with the requimrnems phase, where the standards body
`decides what should be achieved with the standard. This phase is usually rela-
`tively short.
`
`In tlreamhirecurr: phase. the srarudards body decides ahoutthe architecture. i.e.
`the principles of how to meet the requirements. The architecture phase includes
`decisions about reference points and interface: to be standardized. This phase is
`usually quite long and may change the requirements.
`
`After the architecture phase, the detailed specification phase starts. It is in this
`phase the denils for each of the identified interfaces are specified. During the
`detailed specificsfion of the intufaces. the standards body may find that it has

`
`During the fall 2005, 3GPP'l'SG RAN W01 "made extensive studies of different
`basic physical layer technologies and in December 2005 the T80 RAN plenary
`decided that the LTE radio access should be based on OFDM in the downlink
`and single carrier mm in the uplink.

`
`TSG RAN and its working groups then worked on the {IE specifications and
`the specifications were approved in December 2007. However, SGPP TSG RAN

`
`18.3 Random access
`
`A fmdamental reqilirement for any cellular system is the possibility for the ter-
`minal to request a connection setup. commonly referred to as random access. In
`LTB, random access is med for several purposes, including:
`
`0 for initialacoess when establishing a radio link (moving from RRCJDLB to
`RRC_CONNEC'l‘ED; see Chapter 15 for a discussion on difierent erminal
`states);
`0 tore-esteblisharadio link afterradiolinkfiilure;
`e for handover when uplink synchronization needs no he established to the
`new cell;
`0 to estibliflr uplink synchronization ifuplink or downlink data arrives when
`the terminal is in RRC_CONN'BC'I'ED and the uplink is not synchronized;
`0 as a scheduling request if no dedicated scheduling-request resources have
`beeneonfiguredonPUCCH(seeChapter 19 foradiscussion onuplirrk
`scheduling procedures).
`
`Establislmmcm of uplink syrrnhronimtion is the main objective for all the cases
`above: when establishing an
`radio link (Le. when moving from RRC_
`IDLE to RRC_CONNEC.'I‘ED). the random-access procedure also serves the
`purpose olessignlng I unique identity. the C-RNTI. to the terminal.

`18.3. 1 Step 1: Random-access preamble transmission
`The first step in the random-access procedure is the uarrsrrrission of ti random-
`sooe preamble. The main purpose of the preamble transrnission is to indicate
`no the base station the presence ofa random-access attempt and to allow the
`bnsestaIiontoesfimatethede.laybetweenfl1eeNodeBandlheUermirraI. The
`delay estimate will be used in the second step to adjust the uplink
`
`The tirne-tieqtrency resotroce on which the random-access preamble is n'nnsrnit-
`ted upon is known as the Phylvical Random Accm Channel (PRACI-1’). The net-
`work broadcasts information to all terminals in which tltme-frequency resources
`nndom-scenes preamble ttnnsrnission is allowed (i.e., the PRACH resources. in
`SIB-2). As part
`the filst step of the random-access procedure, the terminal
`selects one preamble to transmit on the PRACH.

`
`18.3.11 PHACH time-frequency resources
`In the frequency domain, the PRACH resource, illustrated in Figure 18.10,
`has a bandwidth corresponding to six resource blocks (l.08MHz). This nicely
`rnatdtes the smallest uplink cell bandwidth of six resource blocks in which LTE
`can operate. Hence. the sun: random-access preamble structure can be used.

`nrbitrary long mndorn-access region by simply avoiding scheduling terminals in
`multiple subsequent subfran-res.
