Abstract

A communication system that uses dual base station frame boundaries is provided. A base station is in communication with a core network of at least one service provider and user equipment. The base station includes a circuitry that is configured to set a UL physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) time frame boundary in alignment with a downlink (DL) PDSCH time frame boundary, process PUSCH communication signals in the PUSCH using the UL PUSCH time frame boundary, set an UL random access channel (RACH) time frame boundary at a select delay from an associated RACH time frame boundary within a UL PUSCH time frame, process RACH communication signals using the delayed UL RACH time frame boundary, and provide a timing advance command to a UE that communicated a UL RACH communication signal that accounts for a round trip latency in a fronthaul network connecting the base station and radio units.
