4 Synchronization procedures
4.1 Cell search
Cell search is the procedure for a UE to acquire time and frequency synchronization with a cell and to detect the
physical layer Cell ID of the cell.
A UE receives the following synchronization signals (SS) in order to perform cell search: the primary synchronization
signal (PSS) and secondary synchronization signal (SSS) as defined in [4, TS 38.211].
A UE assumes that reception occasions of a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), PSS, and SSS are in consecutive
symbols, as defined in [4, TS 38.211], and form a SS/PBCH block. The UE assumes that SSS, PBCH DM-RS, and
PBCH data have same EPRE. The UE may assume that the ratio of PSS EPRE to SSS EPRE in a SS/PBCH block is
either 0 dB or 3 dB. If the UE has not been provided dedicated higher layer parameters, the UE may assume that the
ratio of PDCCH DMRS EPRE to SSS EPRE is within -8 dB and 8 dB when the UE monitors PDCCHs for a DCI
format 1_0 with CRC scrambled by SI-RNTI, P-RNTI, or RA-RNTI.
For a half frame with SS/PBCH blocks, the first symbol indexes for candidate SS/PBCH blocks are determined
according to the SCS of SS/PBCH blocks as follows, where index 0 corresponds to the first symbol of the first slot in a
half-frame.
- Case A - 15 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes of {} . For
2, 8 +14⋅ n
carrier frequencies smaller than or equal to 3 GHz, n =0,1. For carrier frequencies within FR1 larger than 3
GHz, n = 0,1, 2, 3 .
- Case B - 30 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes {}4, 8, 16, 20 + 28⋅ n . For
carrier frequencies smaller than or equal to 3 GHz, n = 0 . For carrier frequencies within FR1 larger than 3 GHz,
n =0,1.
- Case C - 30 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes {}2, 8 +14⋅ n .
- For paired spectrum operation
- For carrier frequencies smaller than or equal to 3 GHz, n =0,1. For carrier frequencies within FR1 larger
n = 0,1, 2, 3
than 3 GHz, .
- For unpaired spectrum operation
- For carrier frequencies smaller than or equal to 2.4 GHz, n =0,1. For carrier frequencies within FR1
larger than 2.4 GHz, n = 0,1, 2, 3 .
- Case D - 120 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes {}4, 8, 16, 20 + 28⋅ n .
For carrier frequencies within FR2, n = 0,1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8,10,11,12,13,15,16,17,18.
- Case E - 240 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes
{}8, 12, 16, 20, 32, 36, 40, 44 + 56 ⋅ n . For carrier frequencies within FR2, n = 0,1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 .
From the above cases, if the SCS of SS/PBCH blocks is not provided by subcarrierSpacing, the applicable cases for a
cell depend on a respective frequency band, as provided in [8-1, TS 38.101-1] and [8-2, TS 38.101-2]. A same case
applies for all SS/PBCH blocks on the cell. If a 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS is indicated by subcarrierSpacing, Case B
applies for frequency bands with only 15 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS as specified in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], and the case
specified for 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS in [8-1, TS 38.101-1] applies for frequency bands with 30 kHz SS/PBCH
block SCS or both 15 kHz and 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS as specified in [8-1, TS 38.101-1]. For a UE configured to
operate with carrier aggregation over a set of cells in a frequency band of FR2 or with frequency-contiguous carrier
aggregation over a set of cells in a frequency band of FR1, if the UE is provided SCS values by subcarrierSpacing for
receptions of SS/PBCH blocks on any cells from the set of cells, the UE expects the SCS values to be same.
The candidate SS/PBCH blocks in a half frame are indexed in an ascending order in time from 0 to L −1 . A UE
max
determines the 2 LSB bits, for L = 4 , or the 3 LSB bits, for L > 4 , of a SS/PBCH block index per half frame from
max max
ETSI
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
3GPP TS 38.213 version 15.5.0 Release 15 10 ETSI TS 138 213 V15.5.0 (2019-05)
a one-to-one mapping with an index of the DM-RS sequence transmitted in the PBCH. For L = 64 , the UE
max
determines the 3 MSB bits of the SS/PBCH block index per half frame from PBCH payload bits a ,a ,a as
A+5 A+6 A+7
described in [5, TS 38.212].
A UE can be provided per serving cell by ssb-periodicityServingCell a periodicity of the half frames for reception of the
SS/PBCH blocks for the serving cell. If the UE is not configured a periodicity of the half frames for receptions of the
SS/PBCH blocks, the UE assumes a periodicity of a half frame. A UE assumes that the periodicity is same for all
SS/PBCH blocks in the serving cell.
For initial cell selection, a UE may assume that half frames with SS/PBCH blocks occur with a periodicity of 2 frames.
Upon detection of a SS/PBCH block, the UE determines from MIB that a CORESET for Type0-PDCCH CSS set, as
described in Subclause 13, is present if k ≤ 23 [4, TS 38.211] for FR1 or if k ≤ 11 for FR2. The UE determines
SSB SSB
from MIB that a CORESET for Type0-PDCCH CSS set is not present if k > 23 for FR1 or if k >11 for FR2; the
SSB SSB
CORESET for Type0-PDCCH CSS set may be provided by PDCCH-ConfigCommon.
For a serving cell without transmission of SS/PBCH blocks, a UE acquires time and frequency synchronization with the
serving cell based on receptions of SS/PBCH blocks on the PCell, or on the PSCell, of the cell group for the serving
cell.
4.2 Transmission timing adjustments
A UE can be provided a value N of a timing advance offset for a serving cell by n-TimingAdvanceOffset for the
TA_offset
serving cell. If the UE is not provided n-TimingAdvanceOffset for a serving cell, the UE determines a default value
of the timing advance offset for the serving cell as described in [10, TS 38.133].
N
TA_offset
If a UE is configured with two UL carriers for a serving cell, a same timing advance offset value N applies to
TA_offset
both carriers.
Upon reception of a timing advance command for a TAG, the UE adjusts uplink timing for PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH
transmission on all the serving cells in the TAG based on a value N that the UE expects to be same for all the
TA_offset
serving cells in the TAG and based on the received timing advance command where the uplink timing for
PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH transmissions is the same for all the serving cells in the TAG.
μ
For a SCS of 2 ⋅15 kHz, the timing advance command for a TAG indicates the change of the uplink timing relative to
μ
the current uplink timing for the TAG in multiples of 16 ⋅ 64 ⋅T 2 . The start timing of the random access preamble is
c
described in [4, TS 38.211].
In case of random access response, a timing advance command [11, TS 38.321], T , for a TAG indicates N values
A TA
μ
by index values of T = 0, 1, 2, ., 3846, where an amount of the time alignment for the TAG with SCS of 2 ⋅15 kHz
A
μ
is N = T ⋅16 ⋅ 64 2 . N is defined in [4, TS 38.211] and is relative to the SCS of the first uplink transmission
TA A TA
from the UE after the reception of the random access response.
In other cases, a timing advance command [11, TS 38.321], T , for a TAG indicates adjustment of a current N
A TA
μ
value, , to the new value, N , by index values of = 0, 1, 2,., 63, where for a SCS of 2 ⋅15 kHz,
N N T
TA_old TA TA_new A
μ
N = N +()T − 31 ⋅16⋅ 64 2
.
TA_new TA_old A
If a UE has multiple active UL BWPs, as described in Subclause 12, in a same TAG, including UL BWPs in two UL
carriers of a serving cell, the timing advance command value is relative to the largest SCS of the multiple active UL
BWPs. The applicable N value for an UL BWP with lower SCS may be rounded to align with the timing
TA_new
advance granularity for the UL BWP with the lower SCS while satisfying the timing advance accuracy requirements in
[10, TS38.133].
Adjustment of an N value by a positive or a negative amount indicates advancing or delaying the uplink
TA
transmission timing for the TAG by a corresponding amount, respectively.
