Abstract:
Disclosed are narrowband (NB)-physical random access channel (PRACH) techniques for NB-long term evolution (LTE) systems supporting cellular internet of things (CIoT) and machine-type communications (MTC) deployments. Apparatus and methods are described for generating, transmitting, or receiving an NB-PRACH defined by an NB-PRACH physical structure and an NB-PRACH numerology.

Claim (Index 44):
An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) for accessing a narrowband (NB)-long term evolution (LTE) network connection, the apparatus comprising:\n control circuitry configured to generate an NB-physical random access channel (NB-PRACH) preamble and a scheduling request (SR), the NB-PRACH preamble being for transmission in an NB-PRACH and the SR being for transmission in a physical uplink (UL) channel having a frequency band that is different from that of the NB-PRACH, the NB-PRACH having a frequency bandwidth of up to about 200 kilohertz (kHz) and a transmission time duration of one or more LTE transmission time intervals (TTIs); and the control circuitry further configured to multiplex the NB-PRACH and SR by frequency division multiplexing (FDM) for simultaneous transmission during the transmission time duration and through, respectively, the NB-PRACH and the physical UL channel.
