A random access method, a base station, an UE and a device with a storage function are disclosed. The random access method includes: the base station receiving a first message transmitted by the UE, the first message including a preamble message and a signal message; decoding the preamble message and the signal message respectively; if the decoding of preamble message is succeeded, but the decoding of signal message fails, the base station transmits a second message to the UE, and storing the signal message of decoding failure, the second message configured to request the UE to retransmit the signal message; receiving the third message transmitted by the UE, the third message including the signal message; using a chase combine mechanism to decode the third message according to the stored signal message in the first message. The present disclosure save time and improve the efficiency of random access.

The present disclosure relates to methods, systems and devices for use in a wireless terminal includes transmitting, to a wireless network node, a preamble comprising a plurality of parts, wherein each of the plurality of parts comprises at least one sub-preamble and the sub-preambles in the plurality of parts are generated based on a plurality of roots.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may perform a random access channel (RACH) procedure with a base station. The UE may receive a message configuring a random access occasion and a PUSCH occasion. The UE may transmit a random access preamble according to the random access occasion scheduled in the message. The UE may also transmit a repetition of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) data of the message corresponding to the random access occasion in each uplink transmission time interval for a defined number of uplink transmission time intervals that occur after the random access occasion.

Technologies directed to reducing medium access contention within a wireless network are described. One method includes a first wireless device (e.g., an access point (AP) or mesh station) receiving first data with a first schedule from a second wireless device. Both wireless devices operate on a first channel or an adjacent channel in a wireless network. The first schedule defines a first interval during which the second wireless device transmits or receives frames on the first channel or the second channel. The first wireless device generates a second schedule that defines a second interval during which the first wireless device transmits or receives frames on the first or second channels, the second interval being non-overlapping with the first interval. First wireless device sends second data with the second schedule to the second AP device and communicates a data frame with a device connected to the first wireless device according to the second schedule.

Receiver assisted channel access may be used during a channel occupancy time (COT). A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) that is a member of a first group may receive a preamble in a first time slot set, and determine a group associated with the first time slot. On a condition that the group associated with the first time slot set is the first group, the WTRU may monitor the channel for a request-to-send (RTS) signal in the first slot set. On a condition that the RTS signal is received, the WTRU may perform listen-before-talk (LBT) on the channel. On a condition that the LBT is successful, the WTRU may transmit a clear-to-send (CTS) on the channel and access the channel in the first time slot. On a condition that the LBT is unsuccessful, the WTRU may not access the channel in the first time slot set.

Terminal device receives a high-layer parameter and transmits a PRACH. The high-layer parameter indicates a set of PRACH occasions and a PRACH slot for transmission of the PRACH. In a case that a PRACH occasion in the set of PRACH occasions is allocated to a slot different from the PRACH slot, the PRACH occasion is dropped for transmission of the PRACH.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, information that configures multiple random access channel (RACH) partitions, wherein the multiple RACH partitions are each associated with a respective combination of one or more RACH features. The UE may select, from the multiple RACH partitions, a RACH partition based at least in part on the UE satisfying one or more criteria for the combination of one or more RACH features associated with the RACH partition. The UE may transmit, to the base station, a preamble on physical RACH (PRACH) resources associated with the RACH partition to initiate a RACH procedure supporting the combination of one or more RACH features associated with the RACH partition. Numerous other aspects are described.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques may enhance coverage by supporting repetitions of a random access request. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, a synchronization signal block (SSB) message. The UE may measure the SSB message in order to determine signal metric, such as reference signal received power (RSRP). Based on the RSRP of the SSB, the UE may determine to transmit a set of repetitions of a random access request. The UE may then monitor a resource of a downlink control channel for a random access response from the network entity.

A method and an apparatus for maintenance of a bandwidth part. The method and apparatus resolve an issue of the prior art in which expiration of a bandwidth part deactivation timer during a random access process changes the bandwidth part to a default bandwidth part, such that data cannot be transmitted on an optimal bandwidth part, and may even cause an interruption of an ongoing data transmission, while also affecting an ongoing random access process. In embodiments of the present invention, a terminal keeps a current active bandwidth part unchanged during a random access process, and performs a restart operation of a bandwidth part deactivation timer after the random access process is successfully completed, such that a situation where a bandwidth part changes to a default bandwidth part does not occur during the random access process, thereby reducing interruption to ongoing data transmissions and reducing the impact on ongoing random access processes.

To avoid blocking node AC queues in the degraded MU EDCA mode due to regular OFDMA transmission of data from another AC queue in resource units provided by an AP, the present invention proposes to use a dedicated HEMUEDCATimer for each AC queue, in order for them to be able to exit the degraded MU EDCA mode independently of the other AC queues. In this respect, upon successfully transmitting data stored in two or more traffic queues, in each of one or more accessed resource units provided by the AP within one or more transmission opportunities, the node sets each traffic queue transmitting in the accessed resource unit in the degraded MU EDCA mode for a predetermined degrading duration counted down by a respective timer associated with the transmitting traffic queue. Next, upon expiry of any timer, the node switches back the associated traffic queue to the conventional EDCA mode.
