Abstract
A method, a terminal device, and a base station for power control in random access procedure. The method implemented at a terminal device includes: obtaining at least one power control parameter to be used for a request message for a random access; and transmitting, to a base station, the request message for the random access. A power of the request message for the random access is controlled based on the at least one power control parameter. The request message comprises: a random access channel (RACH) preamble and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). The power control may be achieved in a RACH procedure different with 4-step RACH procedure, such as in a 2-step RACH procedure.

A method implemented at a terminal device, the method comprising:
- obtaining at least one power control parameter to be used for a request message for a two-step random access, wherein the request message comprises a first random access preamble and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and the at least one power control parameter comprises a first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble;
- and
- transmitting, to a base station, the request message for the two-step random access, in which the first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble is equal to a second power offset between a message 3 (msg3) and a second random access preamble in a four-step random access, wherein the second power offset between the msg3 and the second random access preamble in the four-step random access is comprised in a radio resource control (RRC) signalling message, and wherein the at least one power control parameter is used for calculating a power of the PUSCH of the request message.
A method implemented at a base station, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a terminal device, a request message for a two-step random access, in which at least one power control parameter is used for the request message, wherein the request message comprises a first random access preamble and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and the at least one power control parameter comprises a first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble, wherein the first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble is equal to a second power offset between a message 3 (msg3) and a second random access preamble in a four-step random access, wherein the second power offset between the msg3 and the second random access preamble in the four-step random access is comprised in a radio resource control (RRC) signalling message, and wherein the at least one power control parameter is used for calculating a power of the PUSCH of the request message.
A terminal device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory containing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the terminal device to:
- obtain at least one power control parameter to be used for a request message for a two-step random access, wherein the request message comprises a first random access preamble and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and the at least one power control parameter comprises a first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble;
- and
- transmit, to a base station, the request message for the two-step random access, in which the first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble is equal to a second power offset between a message 3 (msg3) and a second random access preamble in a four-step random access, wherein the second power offset between the msg3 and the second random access preamble in the four-step random access is comprised in a radio resource control (RRC) signalling message, and wherein the at least one power control parameter is used for calculating a power of the PUSCH of the request message.
A base station comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory containing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the base station to:
- receive, from a terminal device, a request message for a two-step random access, in which at least one power control parameter is used for the request message, wherein the request message comprises a first random access preamble and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and the at least one power control parameter comprises a first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble, wherein the first power offset between the PUSCH and the first random access preamble is equal to a second power offset between a message 3 (msg3) and a second random access preamble in a four-step random access, wherein the second power offset between the msg3 and the second random access preamble in the four-step random access is comprised in a radio resource control (RRC) signalling message, and wherein the at least one power control parameter is used for calculating a power of the PUSCH of the request message.
