Abstract
A method is provided for managing wireless network traffic that includes designating a first resource block of a macro base station and a second resource block of a small cell base station for access by a physical random access channel (PRACH). The method further includes designating a first random access subframe associated with the first resource block and a second random access subframe associated with the second resource block for access by a random access channel message. The first random access subframe has a first allocation of random access signatures that are configured to receive a plurality of random access requests. The second random access subframe is time-aligned with the first random access subframe and has a second allocation of random access signatures that are configured to receive a plurality of random access requests.
