Random Access Reporting for Reestablishment in 5G NR

The patent segments the random access reporting mechanism by creating distinct report types: one for successful reestablishment procedures and another for unsuccessful attempts. This segmentation allows the network to receive differentiated information about reestablishment outcomes, enabling targeted optimization without requiring complete redesign of the reporting framework.

The patent introduces specific parameter changes to existing random access reports, such as adding failure indicators, cell identity fields, and beam failure information to unsuccessful reestablishment reports. These parameter modifications enable the network to distinguish between successful and unsuccessful procedures while maintaining compatibility with existing reporting structures.

The patent extracts only the essential information needed for network optimization from the reestablishment procedure, such as cell identity, beam failure indicators, and success/failure status. By taking out only these critical parameters rather than reporting all possible details, the patent reduces signaling overhead while maintaining sufficient information for effective resource management.

The patent applies partial action by reporting detailed information only when necessary (e.g., only reporting failure details when reestablishment fails), and using simplified reports for successful procedures. This selective reporting approach provides sufficient information for optimization without generating excessive signaling overhead in all cases.

The patent creates a universal reporting mechanism that handles multiple reestablishment triggering scenarios through a unified framework. Whether the random access is triggered by beam failure, handover, or other conditions, the same reporting structure with differentiated parameters accommodates all scenarios, reducing the need for separate management procedures for each case.

Instead of creating separate reporting mechanisms for each reestablishment scenario, the patent inverts the approach by using a single reporting mechanism with optional differentiated parameters. This inversion simplifies management by consolidating multiple scenario-handling approaches into one unified procedure.
