Abstract
A method of generating random access preambles includes receiving information on a source logical index and generating random access preambles in the order of increasing cyclic shift from root ZC sequences with the consecutive logical indexes from the beginning of the source logical index until a predetermined number of the random access preambles are found, wherein the consecutive logical indexes are mapped to root indexes of the root ZC sequences.

A method of transmitting a signal for a random access procedure, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a radio frequency (RF) unit of a user equipment (UE), a first logical index from a base station, wherein the first logical index is one of consecutive logical indexes which are mapped to physical root indexes of a root Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequence, the physical root indexes of the root ZC sequence are divided into subgroups according to cyclic shift parameters, and each of the subgroups includes at least one physical root index;
- receiving, by the RF unit of the UE, information regarding a cyclic shift parameter from the base station;
- and
- transmitting, by the RF unit of the UE, a random access preamble of a predetermined number of random access preambles,
- wherein the predetermined number of random access preambles are obtained, at a processor of the UE, by generating random access preambles in the order of increasing cyclic shift from a first root ZC sequence with a first physical root index mapped to the first logical index in a memory of the UE and by generating additional random access preambles in an order of increasing cyclic shift from a second root ZC sequence with a second physical root index mapped to a second logical index in the memory of the UE when the predetermined number of random access preambles cannot be generated from the first root ZC sequence, wherein the second logical index is consecutive to the first logical index, and
- wherein a sum of the first physical root index and the second physical root index is equal to a length of the root ZC sequence, and
- wherein a value of the cyclic shift is obtained from the cyclic shift parameter.
