Abstract: A method and apparatus for selecting an enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) transport format combination (E-TFC) in Cell_FACH state and idle mode are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) transmits a random access channel (RACH) preamble and receives an index to an E-DCH resource in response to the RACH preamble. The WTRU may estimate a power headroom based on the maximum WTRU transmit power, power offset value, and the last successfully transmitted RACH preamble transmit power. The WTRU restricts an E-TFC based on the estimated power headroom, and selects an E-TFC based on a set of supported E-TFCs. The WTRU then generates, and transmits, a protocol data unit (PDU) based on the selected E-TFC.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for radio link synchronization and power control in CELL_FACH state and idle mode are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) transmits a random access channel (RACH) preamble and receives an acquisition indicator acknowledging the RACH preamble via an acquisition indicator channel (AICH) and an index to an enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) resource. The WTRU determines a start of an E-DCH frame. An F-DPCH timing offset is defined with respect to one of the RACH access slot and an AICH access slot carrying the acquisition indicator. A relative F-DPCH timing offset may be signaled to the WTRU and the WTRU may determine a start of an E-DCH frame based on the relative F-DPCH timing offset and timing of an AICH access slot including the acquisition indicator. The WTRU may transmit a dedicated physical control channel (DPCCH) power control preamble before starting an E-DCH transmission.

Abstract: A wireless communication network may include multiple cells for communicating with a WTRU. One cell may be a macrocell, while another may be a small cell, such as a picocell or a femtocell. Interference control may be performed for controlling communications performed by multiple cells. Inter-cell interference in the downlink and/or uplink may be addressed by time domain resource partitioning. A control channel may be precoded separate from other uplink channels in beamforming. Multiple blank subframes may be included in communications to reduce interference with other communications on the network. Control channel power may be controlled based on WTRU measurements. Transmission power on the control channel may be adjusted based on a difference between a serving cell measurement and a non-serving cell measurement taken at the WTRU.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for utilizing multiple carriers are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) capable of receiving on a single downlink carrier at a time may tune the receiver to one downlink carrier and switch the downlink carrier in accordance with a configured pattern. The WTRU may switch the carrier from an anchor carrier to a non-anchor carrier at a high speed shared control channel (HS-SCCH) sub-frame boundary, and switches back at an end of a subsequent high speed physical downlink shared channel (HS-PDSCH) subframe. The WTRU may switch the carrier at an HS-PDSCH sub-frame boundary. A WTRU capable of receiving on multiple downlink carriers simultaneously may tune the receiver to an anchor carrier and a supplementary carrier, and switch the supplementary carrier to another carrier based on a carrier switching order. The carrier switching order may be received via an HS-SCCH or via layer 2 signaling.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed herein associated with the estimation of an obstacle location. A WTRU may receive configuration information regarding reference signal (RS) resources, and transmit an RS (e.g., a sounding reference signal for positioning) using a configured resource. The WTRU may receive a signal reflected from an obstacle based on the transmission of the RS and the WTRU may perform a measurement of the reflected signal. The WTRU may report a result of the measurement to a network device to assist the network device with determining the location of the obstacle.
