Abstract

In a first embodiment, a method for determining a dynamic RACH response backoff indicator is disclosed, comprising: estimating a load on the PRACH, based on a number of preambles detected for each PRACH slot, noise floor level, and other Phy features; and using this as an input to perform dynamic backoff indicator selection. In a second embodiment, a method for determining dynamic RACH response backoff indicator is disclosed, comprising: determining, by using the information provided by the connected UEs, how much effort was required to connect with an eNB; and deciding, by a dynamic core allocation, if a zero backoff indicator can be used or a non-zero backoff indicator value is needed to be used.

Claims (6)

1 . A method for determining a dynamic RACH response backoff indicator, comprising:

estimating a load on the PRACH, based on a number of preambles detected for each PRACH slot, noise floor level, and other Phy features; and

using this as an input to perform dynamic backoff indicator selection.

2 . A method for determining dynamic RACH response backoff indicator, comprising:

determining, by using the information provided by the connected UEs, how much effort was required to connect with an eNB; and

deciding, by a dynamic core allocation, if a zero backoff indicator can be used or a non-zero backoff indicator value is needed to be used.
