Abstract

A method for a user equipment to perform a random access to a network in a mobile communication system includes transmitting a random access preamble to the network; receiving a medium access control packet data unit (MAC PDU) via a downlink shared channel, wherein the MAC PDU comprises one or more sub headers in a first part of the MAC PDU and one or more random access responses in a second part of the MAC PDU subsequent to the first part, and wherein the random access responses include first uplink resource allocation information; transmitting a first uplink data based on the first uplink resource allocation information in one of the random access responses; and transmitting a second uplink data based on second uplink resource allocation information when the second uplink resource allocation information is received via a downlink control channel.

Claims (28)

1. A method for a user equipment to perform a random access to a network in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting a random access preamble to the network;

receiving a medium access control packet data unit (MAC PDU) via a downlink shared channel, wherein the MAC PDU comprises one or more sub headers in a first part of the MAC PDU and one or more random access responses in a second part of the MAC PDU subsequent to the first part, and wherein the random access responses comprise first uplink resource allocation information;

transmitting a first uplink data based on the first uplink resource allocation information in one of the random access responses; and

transmitting a second uplink data based on second uplink resource allocation information when the second uplink resource allocation information is received via a downlink control channel.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the second uplink data corresponds to a retransmission of the first uplink data.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, via the downlink control channel, control information regarding a location of the downlink shared channel to receive the MAC PDU.

4. A user equipment (UE) performing a random access to a network in a mobile communication system, the user equipment comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit a random access preamble to the network;

a receiver configured to receive a medium access control packet data unit (MAC PDU) via a downlink shared channel, wherein the MAC PDU comprises one or more sub headers in a first part of the MAC PDU and one or more random access responses in a second part of the MAC PDU subsequent to the first part, and wherein the random access responses comprise first uplink resource allocation information,

wherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit a first uplink data based on the first uplink resource allocation information in one of the random access responses, and to transmit a second uplink data based on second uplink resource allocation information when the receiver receives, via a downlink control channel, the second uplink resource allocation information for transmission of the second uplink data.

5. The user equipment of claim 4 , wherein the transmitter transmits the second uplink data as a retransmission of the first uplink data.

6. The user equipment of claim 4 , wherein the receiver is further configured to receive, via the downlink control channel, control information regarding a location of the downlink shared channel to receive the MAC PDU.

7. A method for a network to control a random access of a user equipment (UE) in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a random access preamble from the UE;

transmitting a medium access control packet data unit (MAC PDU) via a downlink shared channel, wherein the MAC PDU comprises one or more sub headers in a first part of the MAC PDU and one or more random access responses in a second part of the MAC PDU subsequent to the first part, and wherein the random access responses comprises first uplink resource allocation information;

receiving a first uplink data according to the first uplink resource allocation information in one of the random access responses; and

transmitting, via a downlink control channel, second uplink resource allocation information for reception of a second uplink data.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the reception of the second uplink data corresponds to a reception of a retransmission of the first uplink data.

9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

transmitting, via the downlink control channel, control information regarding a location of the downlink shared channel to transmit the MAC PDU.

10. A network controlling a random access of a user equipment (UE) in a mobile communication system, the network comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a random access preamble from the UE;

a transmitter configured to transmit a medium access control packet data unit (MAC PDU) via a downlink shared channel, wherein the MAC PDU comprises one or more sub headers in a first part of the MAC PDU and one or more random access responses in a second part of the MAC PDU subsequent to the first part, and wherein the random access responses comprises first uplink resource allocation information,

wherein, after the receiver receives a first uplink data according to the first uplink resource allocation information in one of the random access responses, the transmitter is further configured to transmit, via a downlink control channel, second uplink resource allocation information for reception of a second uplink data.

11. The network of claim 10 , wherein the receiver receives the second uplink data as a reception of a retransmission of the first uplink data.

12. The network of claim 10 , wherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit, via the downlink control channel, control information regarding a location of the downlink shared channel to transmit the MAC PDU.
