Recommendation:
Configure different

Indexes at cells belonging
to the same site. E.g.:
3/4/5 if RACH density=1 or
6/7/8 if RACH density=2

PRACH
Indicates the first PRB available for PRACH in the UL frequency band
PRACH area (6 PRBs) should be next to PUCCH area either at upper or lower border of
frequency band in order to maximize the PUSCH area but not overlap with PUCCH area
Parameter is configured based on the PUCCH region i.e. its value depends on how many
PUCCH resources are available.
If PRACH area is placed at the lower border of UL frequency band then:
PRACH-Frequency Offset= roundup [PUCCH resources/2]
If PRACH area is placed at the upper border of the UL frequency band then:
PRACH-Frequency Offset= NRB -6- roundup [PUCCH resources/2]
zeroCorrelationZoneConfig
The table highlights how the intra-cell interference is optimized with respect to cell size: the smaller the cell size, the
larger the number of orthogonal signatures and the better the detection performance.
>250 km/h
The Zero Correlation Zone determines the size of the cyclic shift used to generate the PRACH
sequence from the root sequence
There are 838 root sequences from which to generate the PRACH sequences(64)
Each root sequence has a length of 839
Each cell requires no more than 64 PRACH sequences
The number of PRACH sequences which can be generated from each root sequence is given by:
PRACH Sequences per Root Sequence = ROUNDDOWN(839 / Number of Cyclic Shifts (NCS))

PRACH Planning
Wrap Up
Steps:
- Define the prachConfIndex
Depends on preamble format (cell range)
Depends on the amount of RACH attempts
It should be different for each cell of a site
- Define the prachFreqOff
Depends on the PUCCH region
It can be assumed to be the same for all cells of a network (simplification)
- Define the zeroCorrelationZoneConfig
Depends on the cell range
If for simplicity same cell range is assumed for all network then zeroCorrelationZoneConfig
is the same for all cells
- Define the rootSeqIndex
It points to the first root sequence
It needs to be different for neighbour cells
rootSeqIndex separation between cells depends on how many are necessary per cell
(depends on zeroCorrelationZoneConfig)
Assumptions:
- prachConfIndex=3 for all cells
preamble format =0
One PRACH opportunity per 10ms
- prachFreqOff=6 for all cells
PRACH starts at sixth PRB in frequency domain
- Define the zeroCorrelationZoneConfig=8 for all cells
Max cell range = 5.5km
Each cell consumes 4 root sequences
