Method and system for handling random access response in wireless communication system
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Accordingly the embodiments herein provides a method for handling a RAR in a wireless communication system ( 300 ).
1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting a random access (RA) preamble;
monitoring physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including downlink control information (DCI) with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a RA-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) (RA-RNTI);
identifying information associated with a system frame number (SFN) included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI;
receiving a random access response (RAR) in a RAR window based on the information associated with the SFN included in DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI;
identifying whether the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI corresponds to information associated with a SFN of a system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted;
determining to decode the RAR in case that the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI corresponds to the information associated with the SFN of the system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted; and
decoding the RAR based on the determination.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
identifying that the RAR includes a backoff indicator in case that the RAR is decoded;
determining whether the RAR only includes RAPID transmitted from the terminal; and
determining that an RA procedure is completed in case that the RAR only includes the RAPID transmitted from the terminal.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
processing an uplink (UL) grant within the RAR in case that the RAR does not only include the RAPID transmitted from the terminal.
4. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the information associated with the SFN of the system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted, is identified, and
wherein whether the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI is same as the information associated with the SFN of the system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted, is identified.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein a transport block (TB) including the RAR is received and the RAR is processed.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI is 2 bits least significant bit (LSB) of system frame number (SFN).
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI is identified, in case that a length of the RAR window is larger than 10 ms.
8. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor configured to:
transmit, via the transceiver, a random access (RA) preamble,
monitor physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including downlink control information (DCI) with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a RA-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) (RA-RNTI),
identify information associated with a system frame number (SFN) included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI,
receive, via the transceiver, a random access response (RAR) in a RAR window based on the information associated with the SFN included in DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI,
identify whether the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI corresponds to information associated with a SFN of a system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted,
determine to decode the RAR in case that the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI corresponds to the information associated with the SFN of the system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted, and
decode the RAR based on the determination.
9. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
identify that the RAR includes a backoff indicator in case that the RAR is decoded,
determine whether the RAR only includes RAPID transmitted from the terminal, and
determine that an RA procedure is completed in case that the RAR only includes the RAPID transmitted from the terminal.
10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
process an uplink (UL) grant within the RAR in case that the RAR does not only include the RAPID transmitted from the terminal.
11. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the information associated with the SFN of the system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted, is identified, and
wherein whether the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI is same as the information associated with the SFN of the system frame in which the RA preamble is transmitted, is identified.
12. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein a transport block (TB) including the RAR is received and the RAR is processed.
13. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI corresponds to 2 bits least significant bit (LSB) of system frame number (SFN).
14. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the information associated with the SFN included in the DCI with CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI is identified, in case that a length of the RAR window is larger than 10 ms.
