`
`DESCRIPTION
`
`RADIO COMMUNICATION MOBILE STATION APPARATUS AND RADIO
`
`COMMUNICATION METHOD
`
`Technical Field
`
`[0001]
`
`The present
`
`invention relates
`
`to a
`
`radio
`
`communication mobile station apparatus
`
`and a
`
`radio
`
`communication method.
`
`10
`
`Background Art
`
`[0002]
`
`Presently,
`
`studies are underway to use RACH
`
`(Random Access Channel) for initial access from a radio
`
`communication mobile station apparatus
`
`(hereinafter
`
`simply “mobile station”) to a radio communication base
`
`15
`
`station apparatus (hereinafter simply “base station”),
`
`in 3GPP RAN LTE (Long Term Evolution)
`
`(see Non-Patent
`
`Document 1).
`
`The RACH is utilized, for example,
`
`to make
`
`an association request anda resource request to the base
`
`station, and in initial access upon acquiring uplink
`
`20
`
`transmission timing synchronization.
`
`[0003]
`
`A mobile station transmitting a RACH signal
`
`selects one of a plurality of unique signatures in the
`
`RACH and transmits the selected signature to the base
`
`station to distinguish itself from other mobile stations
`
`25
`
`transmitting RACH signals.
`
`[0004] Moreover,
`
`in the RACH,
`
`taking into account that
`
`aplurality of signatures aretransmitted fromaplurality
`
`

`

`Page 13 of 357
`
`2FP06320-PCT
`
`2
`
`of mobile stations at the same time, studies are underway
`
`to use code sequences having low cross-correlation and
`
`high autocorrelation as signatures so as to demultiplex
`
`and detect those signatures in the base station. As a
`
`code sequence having such characteristics,
`
`the CAZAC
`
`(Constant Amplitude Zero Auto-Correlation) sequence is
`
`known, which is one of GCL
`
`(Generalized Chirp-Like)
`
`sequences (see Non-Patent Document 2).
`
`[0005] Furthermore, toreduce the processing delayafter
`
`10
`
`the initial access, studies are underway to report,
`
`in
`
`the RACH,
`
`control
`
`information including the mobile
`
`station ID,
`
`the reason for RACH transmission, bandwidth
`
`allocation request
`
`information (Q0S information,
`
`the
`
`amount of data, and so on), and downlink received quality
`
`15
`
`information (see Non-Patent Document 3).
