Abstract

A method of coordinating resources for repetition of random access bursts performed by a mobile terminal, the method comprising: determining groups of access slots based on parameters from a network, wherein each access slot is defined by any combination of frequency, time and code, and the access slots are organized according to a frequency pattern; transmitting an access burst on an access slot from a chosen group of access slots; and re-transmitting the access burst on the next access slot from the chosen group of access slots.
