Hi, Phil and Scott,
The following is a harmonized
recommendation to resolve the list of comments about BR procedure based on an
offline discussion. Please allocate us a time slot in this afternoon to address
it.
Please note that we would like to discuss
the list below together, and then discuss #B0282 separately.
Thanks.
Lei

***********************************************************************************************************
Suggested Resolution to comment 284:
Make
the following changes:
1.
change the paragraph in line 62 page 321 as follows:
The 3-step random access based BR procedure
is illustrated in Figure 428. At step 1, the AMS shall transmit a BR preamble
sequence and a quick access message on a randomly selected opportunity. The AMS shall start the BR ACK timer after sending BR preamble
sequence and a quick access message. The ABS shall start the BR ACK timer after
receiving BR preamble sequence. The BR ACK timer is defined in section 10.1
Global values. BR ACK timer shall be less than BR timer. At least If the ABS detects at
least one BR preamble sequence in the BR opportunities of frame n, and the ABS
does not grant UL resources by the CDMA_Allocation_IE or the UL Basic
assignement IE to all the successfully received BR requests before or in
the frame n+BR_ACK_Offset, at least
one BR-ACK A-MAP IE shall be sent at the DL frame of the frame n+BR_ACK_Offset, where BR-ACK-Offset is
defined in section 10.1 Global Values. where the BR ACK timer
expires if the ABS detects at least one BR preamble sequence in the BR
opportunities in the corresponding frame. The ABS may send multiple BR-ACK A-MAP IEs in the different subframes in the next DL frame of frame n+BR_ACK_Offset, with each BR-ACK A-MAP IE containing its own bitmap relating to
the preamble sequences being acknowledged/granted in this A-MAP IE alone. Each
AMS should try to decode all BR-ACK MAP-IEs at the DL frame of frame n+BR_ACK_Offset where the BR ACK timer expires after it transmitted a BR preamble sequence in frame n. In
this case if no BR-ACK A-MAP IEs are sent at the DL frame of frame n+BR_ACK_Offset where the BR ACK timer expires, the AMS considers it as an implicit-NACK and may restart BR
procedure.

Suggested resolution to comment 291
Change the paragraph in line 28 page 324
as follows:
In the regular 5-step random access BR
procedure, an AMS shall send a BR preamble sequence only. The AMS shall start the BR ACK timer after sending BR preamble
sequence. If the ABS detects at least one BR preamble sequence
in frame n, and does not grant UL resources by the CDMA_Allocation_IE IE to all
the successfully received BR requests before or in the frame
n+BR_ACK_Offset, the ABS shall send at lease one BR ACK A-MAP IE in the frame
n+BR_ACK_Offset. After sending a BR preamble sequence at frame n, if If the AMS receives neither any UL grant before or in the frame n+BR_ACK_Offset the BR ACK timer expires nor Negative-ACK at the DL frame of the frame n+BR_ACK_Offset where the BR ACK timer
expires, a fixed value of BR timer
shall be activated. The rest of the BR procedure shall be the same as the
fallback 5-step procedure of Figure 429.
