PRACH REPETITION FOR UPLINK COVERAGE ENHANCEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240340974 titled 'PRACH REPETITION FOR UPLINK COVERAGE ENHANCEMENT
The abstract of this patent application describes a user equipment (UE) that is capable of receiving random access configurations for a cell and a contention free random access configuration related to a random access procedure. The UE includes a processor that selects a bandwidth part of the cell for the random access procedure, chooses a four-step random access as the type for the procedure, checks if the contention free random access configuration includes a parameter indicating the number of message 1 (Msg1) repetitions, and performs the random access procedure in the cell based on the result of this determination.
- The UE is equipped with a transceiver for receiving random access configurations and a processor for handling the random access procedure.
- The processor selects a bandwidth part of the cell and a four-step random access type for the procedure.
- It checks if the contention free random access configuration includes a parameter for Msg1 repetitions.
- The random access procedure is then carried out in the cell based on the processor's determinations.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in cellular networks to improve random access procedures and enhance network efficiency. - It can be used in IoT devices to optimize communication with cellular networks. - Telecommunication companies can utilize this innovation to streamline random access processes in their networks.
Problems Solved: - Streamlines the random access procedure in cellular networks. - Enhances the efficiency of communication between user equipment and cells. - Improves the overall performance of cellular networks.
Benefits: - Faster and more efficient random access procedures. - Enhanced network performance and reliability. - Better utilization of network resources.
