Abstract
5G physical random access channel (PRACH) will use several new preamble formats in order to enable new use cases. These new formats, however, results in a PRACH capacity shortfall. In this paper, we propose a solution based on an extension of the LTE PRACH sequence set. Cell-specific sequences are derived from single-root Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequences with a zero-correlation zone, and if necessary, different m-sequence covers instead of multiple roots as in LTE. While this construction is shown to preserve a similar low-correlation zone as with the LTE design, it does not consume the other ZC roots which can then be used to support more cells. The proposed PRACH design is evaluated by 5G link-level simulations to verify the expected good detection performance and low PAPR.
