Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Uplink communication is efficiently performed in non-allocated frequencies. The terminal apparatus includes: a reception unit configured to receive downlink control information on a PDCCH; and a transmission unit configured to transmit a random access preamble. For a first frame structure type, the downlink control information is used to configure a subframe number of a first uplink subframe in which transmission of the random access preamble is allowed. For a second frame structure type, the downlink control information is used to configure a subframe number of a second uplink subframe in which transmission of the random access preamble is allowed and a symbol number of an uplink symbol in the second uplink subframe.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 .- 8 . (canceled) 9 . A terminal apparatus comprising, a transmission circuitry configured to and/or programmed to transmit a random access preamble on a PRACH, and a reception circuitry configured to and/or programmed to receive a downlink control information with CRC parity bits scrambled by RA-RNTI (Random access-Radio Network Temporary Identifier), wherein the RA-RNTI is determined at least based on a symbol number at which the PRACH starts. 10 . The terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the RA-RNTI is determined at least based on an index in addition to the symbol number, the index is a number of a subframe in a frame with 10 ms for the PRACH, the subframe comprises 14 symbols. 11 . The terminal apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the index is 1 ms in time length. 12 . A base station apparatus comprising, a reception circuitry configured to and/or programmed to receive a random access preamble on a PRACH, and a transmission circuitry configured to and/or programmed to transmit a downlink control information with CRC parity bits scrambled by RA-RNTI (Random access-Radio Network Temporary identifier), wherein the RA-RNTI is determined at least based on a symbol number at which the PRACH starts. 13 . The base station apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the RA-RNTI is determined at least based on an index in addition to the symbol number, the index is a number of a subframe in a frame with 10 ms for the PRACH, the subframe comprises 14 symbols. 14 . The base station apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the index is 1 ms in time length. 15 . A communication method of a terminal apparatus, the communication method comprising the steps of: transmitting a random access preamble on a PRACH; and receiving a downlink control information with CRC parity bits scrambled by RA-RNTI (Random access-Radio Network Temporary Identifier), wherein the RA-RNTI is determined at least based on a symbol number at which the PRACH starts. 16 . A communication method of a base station apparatus, the communication method comprising the steps of: receiving a random access preamble on a PRACH; and transmitting a downlink control information with CRC parity bits scrambled by RA-RNTI (Random access-Radio Network Temporary Identifier), wherein the RA-RNTI is determined at least based on a symbol number at which the PRACH starts.
