Abstract:
A method and apparatus for allocating resources to a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) includes the WTRU transmitting a signature sequence, receiving an acknowledge signal in response to the signature sequence, and determining a default resource index. The resource index is associated with enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) parameters.
Abstract:
Paging in a HSDPA connected mode CELL_PCH or URA-PCH state. A WTRU is configured to select various PICH information that is broadcast by a base station (in the HSDPA associated PICH info" information element of a System Information block 5/5bis) by compiling a list of cabdidate PICHs, and selecting a PICH info based on the U-RNTI of the WTRU. The WTRU is configured to receive paging messages, based on the selected PICH information. In one embodiment, a preferred WTRU is configured to receive paging messages, based on a PICH, a HS-SCCH, and a HS-PDSCH. In another embodiment, a preferred WTRU is configured to receive paging messages, based on a PICH and a HS-PDSCH. In both embodiments, a time delay parameter (for timing the transmission of the PICH and the transmission of a paging message) is preferably used so that the WTRU may listen for either the HS-SCCH or HS-PDSCH for a period of time and return to a sleep mode if no paging message is received.
Abstract:
A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) is configured to operate in an high speed data packet access (HSDPA) mode in a cell and/or state and to clear HSDPA resources when moving out of the cell and/or state. The WTRU is configured to clear HSDPA resources when conditions to perform high speed downlink shared channel reception are not met. When in cell transition or state transition, the WTRU checks whether there is an ongoing a high speed downlink scheduling channel (HS-DSCH) reception, and if the new cell or state cannot support HS-DSCH, then the HSDPA resources being used for the ongoing HS-DSCH reception are released. The WTRU uses radio resource control (RRC) processing, and monitors various events and conditions such as an RRC variable HS_DSCH_RECEPTION_GENERAL, which tracks HS-DSCH reception for all states in order to make the determination whether to release HSDPA resources.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for handling cell reselections and transitions includes executing a cell reselection. A medium access control (MAC)-ehs reset is performed.
Abstract:
A method of high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) link adaptation, comprises receiving a channel quality measurement metric over a Measured Results on random access channel (RACH) information element (IE). The link is adapted based upon the received channel quality metric.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for cell update while in a Cell_FACH state are disclosed. After selecting a target cell, system information is read from the target cell including high speed downlink shared channel (HS-DSCH) common system information. A radio network temporary identity (RNTI) received in a source cell is cleared and a variable HS_DSCH_RECEPTION is set to TRUE. An HS-DSCH medium access control (MAC-hs) entity is configured based on the HS-DSCH common system information. High speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) transmission is then received in the target cell. A CELL UPDATE message is sent to notify of a cell change. The HSDPA transmission may be received using a common H-RNTI broadcast in the system information, a reserved H-RNTI as requested in a CELL UPDATE message, or a temporary identity which is a subset of a U-RNTI. The MAC-hs entity may be reset.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for assigning radio resources and controlling parameters for transmission over a random access channel in wireless communications by enhancing a random access channel is disclosed.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for uplink transmission over a non-contentious shared feedback channel are disclosed, wherein the parameters of the uplink transmission are determined by the parameters of a downlink transmission. A new uplink channel, called a physical shared uplink feedback channel (PSUFCH) is used for uplink transmission such as feedback information in response to a downlink transmission on a fast shared data channel. The content of the feedback information may be general, e.g. an ACK/NACK or a channel quality indicator (CQI). The PSUFCH is transmitted using power ramping that terminates upon reception of a downlink ACK (DLACK) from a Node-B. No ambiguity resolution is required due to the non-contentious and deterministic mapping of the uplink channel resources.
