    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may account for propagation delay when initiating a random access (RACH) procedure. For example, the UE may determine transmission timing for a RACH preamble based on an estimated propagation delay, such that the RACH preamble is received at a base station approximately at the beginning of a slot. To support reliable communication of the RACH preamble, the UE may implement a timing offset. In some examples, the base station may configure the UE with the timing offset using system information. Alternatively, the UE may be pre-configured with the timing offset. By determining the transmission timing for the RACH preamble further based on the timing offset, the UE may ensure that the RACH preamble is received at the base station after a slot boundary (e.g., avoiding causing interference to communications in a previous slot).

    摘要: An angular relationship determination method includes: obtaining, at an apparatus, a first phase difference indication corresponding to a first difference in phase between a first signal wirelessly received by a wireless signaling device from a transmitter and a second signal wirelessly received by the wireless signaling device from the transmitter; and determining, at the apparatus, a first angular relationship between the transmitter and the wireless signaling device based on the first phase difference indication, a first virtual focal point location corresponding to the first signal, and a second virtual focal point location corresponding to the second signal, the second virtual focal point location and the first virtual focal point location being different.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may communicate with a base station by initiating a random access procedure with a two-root preamble. The UE may receive, from the base station, control signaling that indicates a set of root preamble sequences. The UE may transmit, to the base station, a preamble signal that is generated based on a first root preamble sequence and a second root preamble sequence of the set of root preamble sequences. The UE may then monitor for a preamble response based on the preamble signal. In some cases, the base station may be a base station in a terrestrial network. In other cases, the base station may be a satellite in a non-terrestrial network (NTN).
