Performing listen-before-talk procedure during random access procedure
A base station transmits, to a wireless device, a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) to initiate a random access procedure on an unlicensed cell. The base station, in response to a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure indicating a clear channel for uplink transmission of a first preamble of the random access procedure, receives the first preamble via a random access channel (RACH) of the unlicensed cell and transmits a second PDCCH for a random access response (RAR). The base station, in response to the LBT procedure indicating an LBT failure, receives a second preamble based on a random access resource selection procedure, and does not transmit the second PDCCH for the RAR.
1. A method comprising:
transmitting, by a base station to a wireless device, a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) to initiate a random access procedure on an unlicensed cell;
in response to a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure indicating a clear channel for uplink transmission of a first preamble of the random access procedure:
receiving, by the base station, the first preamble via a random access channel (RACH) of the unlicensed cell; and
transmitting, by the base station, a second PDCCH for a random access response (RAR); and
in response to the LBT procedure indicating an LBT failure:
receiving, by the base station, a second preamble based on a random access resource selection procedure; and
not transmitting, by the base station, the second PDCCH for the RAR.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting at least one radio resource control (RRC) message comprising:
a first maximum counter value of a preamble transmission counter; and
a second maximum counter value of a second counter.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the clear channel, incrementing the preamble transmission counter.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising setting a preamble power parameter using a value of the preamble transmission counter.
5. The method of claim 2 , further comprising, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the LBT failure, maintaining a same value of the preamble transmission counter.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, in response to the receiving the first preamble via the RACH, transmitting the second PDCCH for the RAR.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the LBT failure, not receiving the first preamble.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the clear channel:
starting a random access response window; and
transmitting the second PDCCH for the RAR during the random access response window.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the LBT failure, not receiving the RAR to the second preamble based on the random access resource selection procedure.
10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining successful completion of the random access procedure based on the wireless device receiving the RAR to the second preamble.
11. A base station comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the base station to:
transmit, to a wireless device, a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) to initiate a random access procedure on an unlicensed cell;
in response to a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure indicating a clear channel for uplink transmission of a first preamble of the random access procedure:
receive the first preamble via a random access channel (RACH) of the unlicensed cell; and
transmit a second PDCCH for a random access response (RAR); and
in response to the LBT procedure indicating an LBT failure:
receive a second preamble based on a random access resource selection procedure; and
not transmit the second PDCCH for the RAR.
12. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to transmit at least one radio resource control (RRC) message comprising:
a first maximum counter value of a preamble transmission counter; and
a second maximum counter value of a second counter.
13. The base station of claim 12 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the clear channel, increment the preamble transmission counter.
14. The base station of claim 13 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to set a preamble power parameter using a value of the preamble transmission counter.
15. The base station of claim 12 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the LBT failure, maintain a same value of the preamble transmission counter.
16. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to, in response to the receiving the first preamble via the RACH, transmit the second PDCCH for the RAR.
17. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the LBT failure, not receive the first preamble.
18. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the clear channel:
start a random access response window; and
transmit the second PDCCH for the RAR during the random access response window.
19. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to, in response to the LBT procedure indicating the LBT failure, not receive the RAR to the second preamble based on the random access resource selection procedure.
20. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to determine successful completion of the random access procedure based on the wireless device receiving the RAR to the second preamble.
