Setting Up a Multiple PRACH Signal
Activating the UES
This task assumes the factory preset conditions for the timing setup table. The desired UEs can be turned off
or on at any time during your signal setup.
1. Turn on UE2 and UE4.
a. Highlight Off for UE2 in the On/Off column.

Configuring Access Slots
When transmitting multiple PRACHs for the same UE, they cannot occupy any of the same access slots
within the 80 ms period. If they do, the subsequent (second PRACH, etc.) PRACH transmission that uses
any of the same access slots will not be occur.
There are two ways to enter the access slot number within the timing setup table:
• Enter the access slot number using the numeric keypad and press the
Enter softkey.
•Press the
Edit Item softkey, enter the number using the numeric keypad, and press Enter.
