Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method carried out by a user equipment in a wireless communication system and a device supporting same and, more particularly, to a method and a device supporting same, the method comprising the steps of: transmitting a physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble in at least one among a plurality of valid PRACH occasions in a PRACH slot; and in response to the PRACH preamble, obtaining information related to a random access response (RAR), wherein the PRACH preamble is included in a plurality of PRACH preambles related to the plurality of valid PRACH occasions, and on the basis that a plurality of consecutive PRACH preambles included in the plurality of PRACH preambles are mapped to a valid physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) occasion, the plurality of PRACH preambles are mapped to first PUSCH occasions among a plurality of valid PUSCH occasions.

Claims (37)

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting a message related to 2-step random access procedure, wherein the message comprises a first physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble on at least one valid PRACH occasion among a plurality of valid PRACH occasions in a PRACH slot; and

obtaining information related to a random access response (RAR) in response to the message,

wherein the first PRACH preamble is included in a plurality of PRACH preambles related to the plurality of valid PRACH occasions,

wherein based on a plurality of consecutive PRACH preambles included in the plurality of PRACH preambles being mapped to one valid physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) occasion, the plurality of PRACH preambles are mapped to a first plurality of PUSCH occasions among a plurality of PUSCH occasions, and

wherein a second PRACH preamble which is not mapped to any one of the first plurality of PUSCH occasions is available to be transmitted in the 2-step random access procedure.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein among a plurality of PUSCH occasions, (i) PUSCH occasions included in uplink (UL) symbols or (ii) PUSCH occasions starting at least N symbols after a last downlink (DL) symbol are determined as the plurality of valid PUSCH occasions, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 0.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a number of the plurality of consecutive PRACH preambles is determined based on a number of the plurality of PRACH preambles and the plurality of valid PUSCH occasions.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the number of the plurality of PRACH preambles is a number of a plurality of PRACH preambles included in a first time period,

wherein a number of the plurality of valid PUSCH occasions is a number of a plurality of valid PUSCH occasions included in a second time period, and

wherein the first time period and the second time period have a same time duration.

5. An apparatus configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor connected to the memory,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

transmit a message related to 2-step random access procedure, wherein the message comprises a first physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble on at least one valid PRACH occasion among a plurality of valid PRACH occasions in a PRACH slot; and

obtain information related to a random access response (RAR) in response to the message,

wherein the first PRACH preamble is included in a plurality of PRACH preambles related to the plurality of valid PRACH occasions,

wherein based on a plurality of consecutive PRACH preambles included in the plurality of PRACH preambles being mapped to one valid physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) occasion, the plurality of PRACH preambles are mapped to a first plurality of PUSCH occasions among a plurality of PUSCH occasions, and

wherein a second PRACH preamble which is not mapped to any one of the first plurality of PUSCH occasions is available to be transmitted in the 2-step random access procedure.

6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein among a plurality of PUSCH occasions, (i) PUSCH occasions included in uplink (UL) symbols or (ii) PUSCH occasions starting at least N symbols after a last downlink (DL) symbol are determined as the plurality of valid PUSCH occasions, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 0.

7. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the apparatus communicates with at least one of a mobile terminal, a network, or an autonomous driving vehicle other than a vehicle including the apparatus.

8. A method performed by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a message related to 2-step random access procedure, wherein the message comprises a first physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble on at least one valid PRACH occasion among a plurality of valid PRACH occasions in a PRACH slot; and

transmitting information related to a random access response (RAR) in response to the message,

wherein the first PRACH preamble is included in a plurality of PRACH preambles related to the plurality of valid PRACH occasions,

wherein based on a plurality of consecutive PRACH preambles included in the plurality of PRACH preambles being mapped to one valid physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) occasion, the plurality of PRACH preambles are mapped to a first plurality of PUSCH occasions among a plurality of PUSCH occasions, and

wherein a second PRACH preamble which is not mapped to any one of the first plurality of PUSCH occasions is available to be received in the 2-step random access procedure.

9. An apparatus configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor connected to the memory,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

receive a message related to 2-step random access procedure, wherein the message comprises a first physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble on at least one valid PRACH occasion among a plurality of valid PRACH occasions in a PRACH slot; and

transmit information related to a random access response (RAR) in response to the message,

wherein the first PRACH preamble is included in a plurality of PRACH preambles related to the plurality of valid PRACH occasions,

wherein based on a plurality of consecutive PRACH preambles included in the plurality of PRACH preambles being mapped to one valid physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) occasion, the plurality of PRACH preambles are mapped to a first plurality of PUSCH occasions among a plurality of PUSCH occasions, and

wherein a second PRACH preamble which is not mapped to any one of the first plurality of PUSCH occasions is available to be received in the 2-step random access procedure.
