Abstract
A method may include determining a timing advance-limited cell maximum range based on a requested preamble format broadcasted by a network node. The method may also include in response to the user equipment being outside of the timing advance-limited cell maximum range, sending a random access preamble with an initial uplink channel timing adjustment to fit an indicated subframe dedicated for a hearing window. The method may also include in response to the user equipment being outside of the timing advance-limited cell maximum range, additional timing adjustment for any uplink transmission in order to maintain uplink to downlink channel synchronization. In a variant, the method may also include in response to the user equipment being outside of the timing advance-limited cell maximum range, additional timing adjustment for any uplink transmission in order to maintain uplink to downlink channel synchronization.
