Immediate Assignment

 

Immediate Assignement is the answering message to the initial "Channel Request" explained above. This is to say to MS "OK, I will accept your 'channel request' and here goes the radio resource you can use for the following steps".

 

One of the Channel Request example would be as follows. The most important thing you have to notice is that Immediate Assignment should play back the whole Channel Request message. All MS(UE) trying to connect a cell would receive the same 'Immediate Assignement', but if the 'Channel Request' portion contained in 'Immediate Assignement' does not match the Channel Request Bytes it sent, UE should discard the Immediate Assignement message since it is not for itself.
