Abstract
A that includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE) from a first base station, on a first carrier, a synchronization sequence (SS) and performing a radio resource management (RRM) measurement in accordance with the SS. The method also includes performing cell selection and mobility support in accordance with the RRM measurement, when the UE is in idle mode and generating an RRM measurement report in accordance with the RRM measurement and transmitting, by the UE to the first base station on the first carrier, the RRM measurement report, when the UE is in connected mode.
Claims19
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a primary synchronization sequence (PSS) signal, a secondary synchronization sequence (SSS) signal, and a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) from a base station, the PSS signal and the SSS signal providing a timing reference to be used for a cell-search by the UE to achieve coarse synchronization with the base station;
- estimating, by the UE, a path loss between the UE and the base station based on a radio resource management (RRM) measurement of at least the SSS signal, the RRM measurement of the SSS signal being a synchronization signal reference signal received power (SS-RSRP) measurement type defined by a fifth generation (5G) new radio (NR) telecommunication standard;
- and
- transmitting, by the UE, a random access channel (RACH) message in accordance with the estimated path loss.
A user equipment (UE) comprising:
- a non-transitory memory storage comprising instructions;
- and
- one or more processors in communication with the non-transitory memory storage, wherein the one or more processors execute the instructions to:
- receive a primary synchronization sequence (PSS) signal, a secondary synchronization sequence (SSS) signal, and a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) from a base station, the PSS signal and the SSS signal providing a timing reference to be used for a cell-search by the UE to achieve coarse synchronization with the base station;
- estimate a path loss between the UE and the base station based on a radio resource management (RRM) measurement of at least the SSS signal, the RRM measurement of the SSS signal being a synchronization signal reference signal received power (SS-RSRP) measurement type defined by a fifth generation (5G) new radio (NR) telecommunication standard;
- and
- transmit a random access channel (RACH) message in accordance with the estimated path loss.
