A subframe is defined as two consecutive slots and i 1. a. Subframe including DL control channel and DL data channel, b. Subframe including DL control channel, DL data channel and UL control channel, c. Subframe including DL control channel and UL data channel, d. Subframe including DL control channel, UL data channel and UL control channel. Subframe type can change on subframe basis. Transmissions in multiple cells can be aggregated where up to 7 secondary cells can be used in addition to the primary cell. Unless otherwise noted, the deription in this specification applies to each of the up to 8 serving cells. In case of multi-cell aggregation, different subframe type can be used in the different serving cells. UE may assume that there is no conflicting DL or UL transmit direction in a given OFDM ol on all heduled component carriers. 5 Uplink 5.1 Overview The smallest resource unit for uplink transmissions is denoted a resource element and is defined in clause 5... 5.1.1 Physical channels An uplink physical channel corresponds to a set of resource elements carrying information originating from higher layers and is the interface defined between [] and the present document TS V5G.11. The following uplink physical channels are defined:

- Physical Uplink Shared Channel, xpusch - Physical Uplink Control Channel, xpucch - Physical Random Access Channel, xprach 5.1. Physical signals An uplink physical signal is used by the physical layer but does not carry information originating from higher layers. The following uplink physical signals are defined: Reference signal 5. Slot structure and physical resources 5..1 Resource grid UL The transmitted signal in each slot is deribed by one or several resource grids of N N 1 UL subcarriers and N 7 OFDM ols. The resource grid is illustrated in Figure 5..1-1. An antenna port is defined such that the channel over which a ol on the antenna port is conveyed can be inferred from the channel over which another ol on the same antenna port is conveyed. There is one resource grid per antenna port. The antenna ports used for transmission of a physical channel or signal depends on the number of antenna ports configured for the physical channel or signal as shown in Table 5..1-1. The index p ~ is used throughout clause 5.5.4 when a sequential numbering of the antenna ports is necessary.

Resource elements Each element in the resource grid is called a resource element and is uniquely defined by the index pair UL k, l UL in a slot where k,..., N N 1 and l,..., N 1 are the indices in the frequency and time domains, respectively. Resource element k, l on antenna port p corresponds to the complex value a ( p) k, l. When there is no risk for confusion, or no particular antenna port is specified, the index p may be dropped. Quantities ( p) k, l a corresponding to resource elements not used for transmission of a physical channel or a physical signal in a slot shall be set to zero.

5..3 Resource blocks A physical resource block is defined as N UL consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain, where physical resource block in the uplink thus consists of consecutive OFDM ols in the time domain and UL N and UL one slot in the time domain and 9 khz in the frequency domain. Table 5..3-1: Resource block parameters N N are given by Table 5..3-1. A N N resource elements, corresponding to UL Configuration N N Normal cyclic prefix 1 7 The relation between the physical resource block number elements ( k, l) in a slot is given by n P k N n P in the frequency domain and resource 5..3.1 Virtual resource block groups of localized type UL UL UL Virtual resource block groups of localized type are numbered from to N 1, where 4N N.

VG VG VG VG VG VG UL n VG is mapped to a set of physical resource blocks given by 5.3 Physical uplink shared channel (xpusch) The baseband signal representing the physical uplink shared channel is defined in terms of the following steps: - rambling - modulation of rambled bits to generate complex-valued ols - mapping of the complex-valued modulation ols onto one or several transmission layers - precoding of the complex-valued ols - mapping of precoded complex-valued ols to resource elements - generation of complex-valued time-domain OFDM signal for each antenna port Figure 5.3-1: Overview of uplink physical channel processing

5.3.1 Scrambling The block of codeword bits b( ),...,b( M bit 1), where M is the number of codeword bits transmitted bit on the physical uplink shared channel in one subframe, shall be rambled with a UE-specific rambling sequence prior to modulation, resulting in a block of rambled bits b ~ ( ),...,b ~ ( M bit 1) according to the following pseudo code Set i = while i M bit if b (i ) x // ACK/NACK or Rank Indication placeholder bits ~ b q ) ( ( i) 1 else if b (i ) y // ACK/NACK or Rank Indication repetition placeholder bits b ~ (i ) b ~ (i 1) i = i + 1 end while else // Data or channel quality coded bits, Rank Indication coded bits or ACK/NACK coded bits end if end if b ~ (i ) b(i ) c(i ) mod where x and y are tags defined in [] clause 5...6 and where the rambling sequence c ( i ) is given by clause 7.. The rambling sequence generator shall be initialised with c 14 13 9 cell nrnti q ns N at the start of each subframe where ns n s mod n and RNTI init corresponds to the RNTI associated with the xpusch transmission as deribed in clause 9 in [3]. 5.3. Modulation The block of rambled bits b ~ ( ),...,b ~ ( M bit 1) shall be modulated as deribed in clause 7.1, resulting in a block of complex-valued ols d( ),...,d( M 1).

During the synchroniation subframe, the UE identifies the ol with a strong beam. A set of parameters provided by the upper layers is used to map the ol with the selected beam to the RACH ol index l, as deribed in 5.7..1. Higher layers determine the component carrier, in which the UE transmits the RACH signal. There are 48 or 16 preambles available according to preamble format in each cell.
