A solution for radio jamming detection is disclosed. The solution comprises determining M subcarriers in a time-frequency resource grid to be blanked and outputting the M subcarriers in the time-frequency resource grid to be blanked by performing at least one of the following operations: first determination of a number M of subcarriers in a time-frequency resource grid to be blanked based on probability of detecting a jammer attack or on channel quality of subcarriers in the time-frequency resource grid, second determination of which M subcarriers in the time-frequency resource grid are blanked taking into account the channel quality of subcarriers in the time-frequency resource grid.

Method and apparatus for radio jamming detection

A method includes determining, by a user device in a wireless network, at least one starting random access channel occasion (RO), wherein each of the at least one starting RO is a first valid RO of an RO set for a physical random access (PRACH) transmission with preamble repetitions, wherein the determining the at least one starting RO is based at least on valid ROs; determining, by the user device, an RO set for the PRACH transmission with preamble repetitions based on the determined at least one starting RO, the determined RO set including one of the at least one starting RO; and transmitting, by the user device to a network node, the PRACH transmission with preamble repetitions using the determined RO set.

Starting random access channel occasion determination for multiple PRACH transmissions for wireless networks

Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices, apparatuses and computer readable storage medium for Random Access Channel (RACH) occasion (RO) dropping. In a method, a device determines a set of valid random access channel occasions (ROs) for a physical random access channel (PRACH) transmission with preamble repetitions. The device determines that the PRACH transmission is to be dropped in at least one RO of the set of valid ROs. The device determines one or more ROs of the set of valid ROs for calculation of a random access radio network temporary identifier (RA-RNTI), the one or more ROs for calculation of the RA-RNTI are not conditioned to whether the corresponding PRACH transmission over the one or more ROs is to be dropped. Then the device calculates the RA-RNTI based on the determined one or more ROs of the set of valid ROs.
