Abstract

A method for radio resource control (RRC) messaging. The messaging includes transmitting a RRC message upon partial completion of message transmission. The RRC message further comprises an information element (IE) that represents a failed or partially failed condition.

Claims (19)

1. A method, performed by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), of handling a radio resource control (RRC) message, the method comprising:

receiving a Long Term Evolution (LTE) RRC message including a gap configuration command and a gap activation command;

performing a measurement gap configuration procedure based on the received gap configuration command; and

performing a measurement gap activation procedure based on the received gap activation command.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the RRC message is a measurement control message.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein the RRC message includes a plurality of measurement gap parameters.

4. The method of claim 3 wherein the measurement gap parameters are combined into a common set.

5. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

transmitting an information element, IE, for each procedure, each IE indicating whether the procedure was successfully completed in its entirety, the procedure was partially completed, or the procedure failed to complete.

6. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a Long Term Evolution (LTE) radio resource control (RRC) message including a gap configuration command and a gap activation command; and

a processor configured to:

perform a measurement gap configuration procedure based on the received gap configuration command; and

perform a measurement gap activation procedure based on the received gap activation command.

7. The WTRU of claim 6 wherein the RRC message is a measurement control message.

8. The WTRU of claim 6 wherein the RRC message includes a plurality of measurement gap parameters.

9. The WTRU of claim 8 wherein the measurement gap parameters are combined into a common set.

10. The WTRU of claim 6 further comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit an information element, IE, for each procedure, each IE indicating whether the procedure was successfully completed in its entirety, the procedure was partially completed, or the procedure failed to complete.
