摘要: Various solutions for random access channel (RACH) preamble design in non-terrestrial network (NTN) communications with respect to user equipment and network apparatus are described. An apparatus may initiate a RACH procedure. The apparatus may determine a fractional frequency offset pattern or a cover code across groups of preamble sequences. The apparatus may generate a RACH preamble signal according to at least one of the fractional frequency offset pattern and the cover code. The apparatus may transmit the RACH preamble signal to a network node.

摘要: Various examples and schemes pertaining to timing advance validation for transmission in preconfigured uplink resources in narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) are described. When in a first mode, an apparatus (e.g., a user equipment) receives a plurality of different values for a time alignment timer (TAT) from a network before entering a second mode from the first mode. When in the second mode, the apparatus selects one of the plurality of values to apply to the TAT and also starts the TAT to count. When there is data for uplink transmission while the apparatus is still in the second mode, the apparatus performs an early data transmission in an event that a timing advance (TA) value is valid and that the apparatus is in the same serving cell as it was before entering the second mode.

摘要: Various solutions for timing and frequency synchronization in non-terrestrial network (NTN) communications with respect to user equipment and network nodes are described. An apparatus may receive a reference time signaled by a network node. The apparatus may measure a received time of a downlink message from the network node. The apparatus may estimate a propagation delay according to the reference time and the received time. The apparatus may perform a timing pre-compensation according to the propagation delay.

摘要: Various solutions for uplink synchronization in non-terrestrial network (NTN) communications are proposed. An apparatus implemented in a user equipment (UE) receives a system information block (SIB) of a target cell via a non-terrestrial (NT) network node of the NTN. The apparatus obtains an explicit epoch time from the SIB of the target cell. Then, the apparatus performs an uplink (UL) synchronization with the target cell through adjusting an uplink transmit time according to the explicit epoch time.

摘要: Various solutions for timing advance (TA) reporting by a user equipment (UE) in non-terrestrial network (NTN) communications are described. An apparatus (e.g., a UE), capable of auto-compensation of time delays in signaling, establishes a wireless connection with a network node of a wireless network. The apparatus then transmits a TA report to the network node. Based on the TA, the network can configure a UE-specific offset for UL scheduling.

摘要: A method of fast synchronization for low coverage machine type communication (MTC) devices is proposed. A machine-specific synchronization signal “mSYNC” with higher density in time and frequency is transmitted from each base station for fast timing and frequency acquisition and tracking. The mSYNC has a relatively longer periodicity (i.e., >>5 ms) to reduce overhead and inter-cell interference. The higher time-frequency density of mSYNC is designed to improve latency and power consumption by allowing the machine to wake up just before the scheduled mSYNC transmission time and to re-synchronize or track synchronization with the network without the need for long averaging time.

摘要: Various solutions for physical random access channel (PRACH) timing advance operation and PRACH configurations with respect to user equipment and network apparatus are described. An apparatus may determine a propagation delay between the apparatus and a network node. The apparatus may determine a pre-compensation timing margin. The apparatus may perform a timing advance pre-compensation according to the propagation delay and the pre-compensation timing margin. The apparatus may transmit an uplink signal by applying the timing advance pre-compensation.
