Purposes Random Access

Through the RA procedure, the UE can:

Obtain the uplink synchronization signals from the network Request dedicated resources for data transmission

Page9

Trigger of Random Access

UE initiates RA procedure in following scenarios :

initial RRC connection establishment RRC connection reestablishment Handover UE is noticed downlink data arrival UE detects Uplink data arrival

Page10

Contention-based and NonContention-based Random Access

the RA procedure can be categorized into the following types :

Contention-based RA

Handover UE is noticed downlink data arrival
