Base station apparatus, terminal apparatus, and method for a random access procedure in wireless communication
To perform communication efficiently. Provided are a receiver configured to receive a random access preamble and a transmitter configured to transmit one or multiple medium access control random access responses (MAC RARs) corresponding to the random access preamble. The transmitter sets, in a case that a MAC RAR of the one or multiple MAC RARs is transmitted in a new radio access technology (NR) cell, a timing advance command (TAC) field included in the MAC RAR to have a first size and an uplink (UL) grant to have a second size, and sets. in a case that a MAC RAR of the one or multiple MAC RARs is transmitted in an NR-unlicensed (NR-U) cell, a size of the TAC field included in the MAC RAR to be smaller than the first size and a size of the UL grant to be greater than the second size.
1. A base station apparatus comprising:
a receiver configured to receive a random access preamble; and
a transmitter configured to transmit one or more medium access control (MAC) random access responses (RARs) corresponding to the random access preamble, wherein
the transmitter is further configured to:
set, in a case that a first MAC RAR of the one or more MAC RARs is transmitted in a new radio (NR) access technology cell, a timing advance command (TAC) field included in the first MAC RAR to have a first size and an uplink (UL) grant, including a frequency hopping flag, to have a second size, and
set, in a case that a second MAC RAR of the one or more MAC RARs is transmitted in an NR-unlicensed (NR-U) cell, the TAC field included in the second MAC RAR to have a third size smaller than the first size and the UL grant, without the frequency hopping flag, to have a fourth size greater than the second size.
2. The base station apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
in the NR-U cell, at least one of a physical uplink shared channel starting position (PSP) field, a channel access type (CAT) field, or a channel access priority class (CAPC) field is set for a random access response (RAR) grant corresponding to the UL grant.
3. A method comprising:
receiving a random access preamble;
transmitting one or more medium access control (MAC) random access responses (RARs) corresponding to the random access preamble;
setting, in a case that a first MAC RAR of the one or more MAC RARs is transmitted in a new radio (NR) access technology cell, a timing advance command (TAC) field included in the first MAC RAR to have a first size and an uplink (UL) grant, including a frequency hopping flag, to have a second size; and
setting, in a case that a second MAC RAR of the one or more MAC RARs is transmitted in an NR-unlicensed (NR-U) cell, the TAC field included in the second MAC RAR to have a third size smaller than the first size and the UL grant, without the frequency hopping flag, to have a fourth size greater than the second size.
4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein
in the NR-U cell, at least one of a physical uplink shared channel starting position (PSP) field, a channel access type (CAT) field, or a channel access priority class (CAPC) field is set for a random access response (RAR) grant corresponding to the UL grant.
5. A terminal apparatus comprising:
a transmitter configured to transmit a random access preamble; and
a receiver configured to receive one or more medium access control (MAC) random access responses (RARs) corresponding to the random access preamble, wherein
the receiver is further configured to:
receive a first MAC RAR of the one or more MAC RARs with a first configuration in a new radio (NR) access technology cell, and
receiver a second MAC RAR of the one or more MAC RARs with a second configuration in an NR-unlicensed (NR-U) cell, wherein;
the first configuration comprises a timing advance command (TAC) field having a first size, and an uplink (UL) grant, including a frequency hoppin flag, having a second size, and
the second configuration comprises the TAC field having a third size smaller than the first size, and the UL grant, without the frequency hopping flag, having a fourth size greater than the second size.
