A method for reporting power headroom is disclosed. Power headroom may be reported across all carriers (wideband), for a specific carrier, or for a carrier group. The formula used to calculate the power headroom depends on whether the carrier (or a carrier in the carrier group) has a valid uplink grant. If the carrier or carrier group does not have a valid uplink grant, the power headroom may be calculated based on a reference grant. The power headroom is calculated by a wireless transmit/receive unit and is reported to an eNodeB.

Techniques for component carrier-specific reconfiguration are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is capable of transmitting or receiving via multiple component carriers. The WTRU may perform component carrier reconfiguration on a component carrier basis to add, remove or replace a component carrier. Discontinuous reception (DRX) and/or discontinuous transmission (DTX) may be performed on at least one component carrier, wherein DRX and/or DTX patterns on the component carriers may not overlap each other. A random access procedure may be performed at the target cell on one component carrier while other component carriers are inactive. The component carrier-specific reconfiguration or handover of a component carrier or a channel may be implemented in coordinated multiple point transmission (CoMP), wherein a handover of a control channel, not a traffic channel, may be performed. Alternatively, a handover of a traffic channel may be performed.

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) receives a downlink subframe having multiple component carriers, each component carrier having control information encoded in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). The WTRU performs a blind decoding of control information in a first PDCCH located within a first component carrier to obtain a location of a second PDCCH located within a second component carrier, where the location of the second PDCCH is relative to a location of the first PDCCH as control channel element offset. The WTRU decodes the second PDCCH at the obtained location.

Discontinuous reception (DRX) operations for wireless communications implementing carrier aggregation are disclosed. Physical downlink control channel implementation for carrier aggregation is also disclosed. DRX methods are disclosed including a common DRX protocol that may be applied across all component carriers, an individual/independent DRX protocol that is applied on each component carrier, and hybrid approaches that are applied across affected component carriers. Methods for addressing the effects of loss of synchronization on DRX, impact of scheduling request on DRX, uplink power control during DRX, and DRX operation in measurement gaps are disclosed.

Techniques for configuring and switching a resource assignment mode for a plurality of component carriers are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) has a capability of supporting multiple resource assignment modes such that a resource assignment mode is configured for a plurality of component carriers that are allocated for the WTRU, and the WTRU attempts to decode a control channel based on the configured resource assignment mode. The resource assignment mode may be configured for the WTRU via higher layer signaling. The resource assignment mode may be specific to the WTRU, or specific to a component carrier or a group of component carriers. The resource assignment mode may be configured separately for a downlink component carrier and an uplink component carrier. The resource assignment mode includes a separate assignment mode with component carrier indication, a separate assignment mode without component carrier indication, or a joint assignment mode.

A method and apparatus for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) for Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) using carrier aggregation is disclosed. Methods for UCI transmission in the uplink control channel, uplink shared channel or uplink data channel are disclosed. The methods include transmitting channel quality indicators (CQI), precoding matrix indicators (PMI), rank indicators (RI), hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK), channel status reports (CQI/PMI/RI), source routing (SR) and sounding reference signals (SRS). In addition, methods for providing flexible configuration in signaling UCI, efficient resource utilization, and support for high volume UCI overhead in LTE-A are disclosed.

A method of decoding enhanced uplink absolute grant channel (E-AGCH) transmissions in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). E-AGCH data is received, the E-AGCH data including a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) part and a data part, the CRC part having been masked with a WTRU identity (ID). The CRC part and the data part are demultiplexed and the CRC part is demasked with a first WTRU ID. A first CRC is performed with the data part and the CRC part demasked with the first WTRU ID. The data part is decoded on a condition that the first CRC passes.
