There are 512 PrSC arranged in 64 groups with 8 codes in each group
S-SCH points to one of 64 groups reducing the search to 8 PrSC candidates
PrSC is 38400 long and it is aligned with the beginning of the radio frame
By convolving single radio frame with 8 possible candidates, the mobile
determines PrSC of the cell
Once PCCPCH is decoded, the mobile has acquired the system and it may register

Decode BCH to learn the available RACH sub channels and their scrambling codes and
signatures (SIB Type 5)
Select randomly the sub channel and scrambling code signature combination
Set initial transmit power on the basis of open loop power control
Send 1 ms preamble with selected signature
Wait for the response on AICH
If there is no response, increase power and send preamble again
If the response is negative PHY informs MAC and stops the procedure
If the response if positive, send RACH message (may be 10ms or 20 ms long)
Power
Initial power determined using open loop power control
Power step and maximum number of power steps: signaled on the BCH

Note: STBC do not increase symbol rate. They use special encoding
scheme to provide diversity reception using a single antenna

UL power control is
implemented in two loops
Inner loop:
Fast loop
Instantaneous SIR of the
mobile on the uplink
Executed by Node B
Outer loop:
Slower loop
Manages the target SIR for
the mobile on the uplink
Executed by RNC
