摘要:
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.

A method and apparatus of performing discontinuous reception (DRX) and downlink inter-frequency and inter-radio access technology (RAT) measurements in CELL_FACH state are disclosed. While in DRX mode, a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may perform inter-frequency and inter-RAT measurements in a measurement occasion that fall into a DRX period. The WTRU may perform the measurements while T321 timer is running. The WTRU may take the measurements on first predetermined number of frame in which a DRX frame would coincide after a last reception frame if DRX operation was ongoing. The WTRU may periodically wake up for downlink reception in CELL_FACH state in accordance with a common DRX pattern that is common to all WTRUs in a cell or may wake up from DRX upon reception of the order and receiving a common traffic.

A method and an apparatus is provided for terminating an enhanced random access channel (E-RACH) message in an E-RACH transmission. Triggers for terminating the E-RACH message are provided. The actions upon termination of the E-RACH messages are provided to release enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) resources while in cell forward access channel (CELL_FACH) state or transition to cell dedicated channel (CELL_DCH) state.

摘要:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for selecting a channel for uplink communication includes determining whether a cell supports transmission over an enhanced random access channel (E-RACH) and selecting whether to send uplink communications over the E-RACH or a random access channel. A method for selecting a transmission time interval (TTI) for use on an E-RACH includes evaluating radio conditions measured at a user equipment and selecting a long TTI if radio conditions are bad and selecting a short TTI if radio conditions are good. Alternatively, the TTI can be selected based on an amount of data to be transmitted on the uplink. A user equipment, an integrated circuit, or a Node B can be configured to perform either method.

摘要:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed to facilitate wireless communications between a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU), legacy base stations and base stations using different operating parameters, such as evolved high speed packet access (HSPA) systems Third Generation Partnership Project ((3GPP) Release 7, Release 8 and beyond). Preferred WTRUs are configured with a medium access control (MAC) sub-layer component having a subcomponent with HARQ buffers, such as a subcomponent configured to provide MAC-es and MAC-e functionality and/or MAC-is and MACi functionality that include hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes, some of which are preferably operable with enhanced dedicated transport channels (E-DCH). The WTRUs are preferably configured such that they reconfigure their MAC subcomponents during soft handover while minimizing induced latency and data losses associated with HARQ processes. In some embodiments, the WTRUs are configured to prevent flushing of HARQ process buffers in soft handover scenarios with a Node B that does not support UL enhancements, e.g. higher order modulation (HOM). In other embodiments, flushing of HARQ processes is used but amelioration of adverse effects is addressed.
