- 1A is a diagram for describing an operation process of a terminal and a base station in a contention-based random access process.
- a UE randomly selects one random access preamble from a set of random access preambles indicated by system information or a handover command, and transmits the random access preamble.
- a resource may be selected and transmitted (S501).
- the terminal After transmitting the random access preamble as in step S501, the terminal attempts to receive its random access response within the random access response receiving window indicated by the system information or the handover command (S502).
- the random access response information may be transmitted in the form of a MAC PDU, and the MAC PDU may be transmitted through a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
- PDSCH physical downlink shared channel
- the UE monitors a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). That is, the PDCCH preferably includes information of a terminal that should receive the PDSCH, frequency and time information of radio resources of the PDSCH, a transmission format of the PDSCH, and the like.
- the UE Once the UE succeeds in receiving the PDCCH transmitted to the UE, it can properly receive the random access response transmitted to the PDSCH according to the information of the PDCCH.
- the random access response includes a random access preamble identifier (ID; for example, RAPID (Random Access Preamble IDentifier)), an UL grant indicating an uplink radio resource, and a temporary C-RNTI. And Timing Advance Command (TAC).
- ID random access preamble identifier
- RAPID Random Access Preamble IDentifier
- TAC Timing Advance Command
- the reason why the random access (or random access) preamble discriminator is needed in the random access response is that the UL grant may be included because one random access response may include random access response information for one or more terminals. This is because it is necessary to inform which UE the temporary cell identifier and the TAC are valid. In this step, it is assumed that the UE selects a random access preamble identifier that matches the random access preamble selected by the UE in step S502. Through this, the UE may receive an UL grant, a temporary C-RNTI, a timing synchronization command (TAC), and the like.
- TAC timing synchronization command
- the terminal When the terminal receives a random access response valid to the terminal, it processes each of the information included in the random access response. That is, the terminal applies the TAC and stores the temporary cell identifier.
- the data to be transmitted may be stored in the message 3 buffer in response to receiving a valid random access response.
- the terminal transmits data (ie, a third message) to the base station by using the received UL grant (S503).
- the third message should include the identifier of the terminal.
- the base station cannot determine which terminals perform the random access process, because the terminal needs to be identified for future collision resolution.
- Two methods have been discussed as a method of including the identifier of the terminal.
- the first method if the UE already has a valid cell identifier assigned to the cell before the random access procedure, the UE transmits its cell identifier through an uplink transmission signal corresponding to the UL grant.
- the terminal transmits its own unique identifier (eg, S-TMSI or random ID). In general, the unique identifier is longer than the cell identifier.
- the UE transmits data corresponding to the UL grant it starts a timer for contention resolution (hereinafter referred to as "CR timer").
- the terminal After the terminal transmits data including its identifier through the UL grant included in the random access response, the terminal waits for instructions from the base station to resolve the collision. That is, an attempt is made to receive a PDCCH in order to receive a specific message (S504). Two methods have been discussed in the method of receiving the PDCCH. As mentioned above, when the third message transmitted in response to the UL grant is transmitted using a cell identifier of its own, it attempts to receive the PDCCH using its cell identifier, and the identifier is a unique identifier. In this case, it may attempt to receive the PDCCH using the temporary cell identifier included in the random access response.
- the terminal determines that the random access procedure has been normally performed, and terminates the random access procedure.
- the terminal determines that the random access procedure has been normally performed, and terminates the random access procedure.
- the non-competitive random access procedure ends the random access procedure only by transmitting the first message and transmitting the second message.
- the terminal before the terminal transmits the random access preamble to the base station as the first message, the terminal is allocated a random access preamble from the base station, and transmits the allocated random access preamble to the base station as a first message and from the base station.
- the random access procedure is terminated by receiving the random access response.
- This discovery procedure is to support efficient power management for discovery of small cells and to discover as many small cells as possible at one time.
- the discovery procedure is useful for efficiently detecting some target small cells among the compact small cells.
- the discovery signal includes at least one of CRS, PSS, SSS or CSI-RS.
- Discovery measurement timing configuration (DMTC), which is a measurement timing setting for the discovery signal, is provided to the terminal through RRC signaling.
- 1B shows the structure of the DMTC. Referring to FIG. 1B, the DMTC may be set at 40, 80, 160 ms periods.
- the DMTC has an offset of 0 or 1 in the PCell subframe or system frame index and its length is fixed (e.g., 6ms).
- the terminal performs an RRM measurement (e.g., RSRP, RSRQ) for the discovery signal based on the DMTC, and reports the measurement result to the base station.
- the discovery procedure is performed at the terminal in the RRC-connected state.

- the lobe refers to each radiation group when the energy distribution of the radio waves radiated from the antenna is divided in various directions. That is, it means one type of beam during beam scanning.
- Equation 1 is used to calculate the SNR of each lobe detected by the UE.
- Equation 1 H i (k) denotes a radio channel of the i-th lobe for the transmission beam k, w i denotes a precoding matrix, p i denotes a reception power, and sigma ⁇ is noise. Sigma is the power of noise.
- ⁇ k When a time at which reception beam scanning for a fixed transmission beam lobe is completed is defined as ⁇ k as shown in FIG. 3, ⁇ k may be determined as shown in Equation 2 below.
- Equation 2 ⁇ exess _delay is an excess delay spread value representing the maximum delay time required for the beam scanning repeatedly at the receiving end, ⁇ prop_delay is a transmission delay value, and ⁇ process _delay is each received beam lobe.
- PDP measurement time and the strong ray detection time for, N means the number of beam lobes on the receiving side.
- the receiver repeats the above process, varying the entire transmission beam lobe of 360 to 360 degrees. Therefore, the beam scanning completion time of the receiving end is K ⁇ k .
- K means the total number of transmission beams.
- the terminal which is a receiving terminal, completes beam scanning, transmits a pilot signal to the mmWave base station again. Thereafter, the terminal performs 360-degree beam scanning to determine the transmitting side lobe index.

- the synchronization of the strong NLoS link may be obtained to improve the performance of the mmWave uplink. Since the TA of the current UE is configured through the LoS link, a new type of PRACH preamble is required to correct the time asynchronousness that occurs as the UE transitions to the NLoS. For example, NLoS excess delay may appear to be approximately 1.4us in large cities.

Therefore, mmWave links have a shorter symbol length than legacy links, more symbols are packed in one TTI, and spectral efficiency can be relaxed. In addition, the number of users in the mmWave cell is relatively small compared to the legacy link, so that user-specific reference signals and control channels can be formed.

- System information may include, but is not limited to, for example, a frame structure index and mmWave system bandwidth.
- the mmWave subframe may be set to a relatively small length compared to the legacy subframe.
- the legacy cell to which the UE is RRC connected needs to provide UE-specific information related to beamforming in the mmWave initial access step.
