COMMUNICATION STATIONS AND METHODS FOR TRANSMITTING ON A RANDOM ACCESS CHANNEL
First Claim
1. A method for transmitting on an enhanced random-access channel (RACH) by a device such that an initial access burst is received in a single time slot by a wireless network, the method comprising:
- determining a timing advance, the timing advance being associated with a serving cell; and
transmitting, using the determined timing advance, the initial access burst, on the enhanced RACH, that includes at least one of an identifier or user data.

Abstract
Example communication stations and methods for transmitting on a random access channel (RACH) in wireless networks are disclosed herein. An example method for transmitting on an enhanced RACH by a device such that an initial access burst is received in a single time slot by a wireless network involves determining a timing advance, the timing advance being associated with a serving cell. The example method also involves transmitting, using the determined timing advance, the initial access burst, on the enhanced RACH, that includes at least one of an identifier or user data.

15. A device comprising a processor configured to:
-
configure an initial access burst for transmission on an enhanced random-access channel (RACH) when a timing advance (TA) is known by the communication station, the initial access burst to include at least one of an identifier and user data; and cause transceiver circuitry to transmit the initial access burst based on the timing advance to be received by a base station within a single time slot of the enhanced RACH. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)
