2. Outline  This contribution summarizes the harmonized proposal from VIA and Qualcomm on enhancements of 1x Rev. F R-EACH channel  It replaces C30-20120301-002R2  The proposal includes  Low Rate R-EACH Frames  Selective ACK for R-EACH  Both are strictly backward compatible.  And both are software upgradable with no hardware change necessary. 2

3. Low Rate R-EACH Frames  Low-rate frames are for link budget limited mobiles.  Three new rates are added for Rel. F R-EACH frames.  All of them have a frame length of 20ms.  They are based on RC3 ½, ¼, and ⅛ rate frame structures. At 4.8kbps, 2.7kbps, and 1.2kbps rates With 10 bytes, 5 bytes, and 2 bytes payload sizes respectively  Base station needs to broadcast its capability supporting this feature or not. A new field in GAPM will be added.  Strictly backward compatible. 3

4. Selective ACK for R-EACH  It targets RoT reduction.  necessary when R-EACH loading is high. ( e.g. when DoS is extensively used. )  The existing mechanism is to send ACK after the whole R-EACH access probe is successfully decoded by base station.  Selective ACK is to individually ACK successfully decoded R-EACH frames within each access probe.  After mobile decodes this new ACK message from F-PCH, it will transmit not- ACK’ed frames in the next access probe. The next access probe will be shorter and more efficient. Base station needs to stitch all frames together later after successfully receive them from possible multiple access probes.  The selective ACK message will be scheduled with low priority. If it cannot be transmitted in time, it will be dropped If it cannot be transmitted, mobile will retransmit the entire probe  A new message will be added on F-PCH for selective ACK and a new capability field will be added for Rel.
