Hello,

                We have planned to support 11 bit RACH in osmo-pcu and osmo-bts. In this regard, we have  a query related to layer 1 to osmo-bts interface, as described below.

1. For 11 bit RACH,  in PH-RA-IND sent from layer 1.

· Whether ‘u8Size’ will be 2 in case of 11 bit RACH ?

· What is the alignment of 11 bits inside ‘u8Buffer ?

2. How osmo-bts can distinguish between types of 11 bit RACH based on received layer 1 message ? (spec 44.060 section 11.2.5a)

· is burst type GsmL1_BurstType_Access_0 equivalent to GPRS_8_BIT_RACH/ GPRS_11_BIT_RACH

· is burst type GsmL1_BurstType_Access_1 equivalent to EGPRS_8_PSK_11_BIT_RACH

· is burst type GsmL1_BurstType_Access_2 equivalent to EGPRS_NO_8_PSK_11_BIT_RACH
