Abstract

A wireless transmit/receive unit includes at least one processor that receives a high speed physical downlink shared channel, and in response, transmits at least one random access channel preamble followed by ACK/NACK and channel quality indicator (CQI) information. The at least one random access channel preamble is selected from a set of random access preambles reserved for the ACK/NACK and CQI information.

Claims (23)

1. A method implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:

receiving, on a multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) control channel (MCCH), a request for MBMS feedback, wherein the request includes an indication per MBMS service;

sending a preamble in a random access channel (RACH), the sent preamble indicating a request for an uplink shared channel allocation;

receiving the uplink shared channel allocation; and

sending the MBMS feedback on the uplink shared channel.

2. The method as in claim 1 , wherein the preamble is derived from a Zadoff-Chu sequence.

3. The method as in claim 1 , wherein the WTRU is in an LTE_Active state and the RACH is a synchronized.

4. The method as in claim 1 , wherein the WTRU is in an LTE_Active state or an LTE_Idle state and the RACH is non-synchronized.

5. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) in a wireless communication system that supports multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS), the WTRU comprising:

a transceiver operatively coupled to a processor;

the transceiver configured to receive, on an MBMS control channel (MCCH), a request for MBMS feedback, wherein the request includes an indication per MBMS service;

the transceiver configured to send a preamble in a random access channel (RACH), wherein the sent preamble indicates a request for an uplink shared channel allocation;

the transceiver is further configured to receive the uplink shared channel allocation; and

the transceiver is further configured to send the MBMS feedback on the uplink shared channel.

6. The WTRU of claim 5 , wherein the preamble is derived from a Zadoff-Chu sequence.

7. The WTRU as in claim 5 , wherein the WTRU is in an LTE_Active state and the RACH is synchronized.

8. The WTRU of claim 5 , wherein the WTRU is in an LTE_Active state or an LTE_Idle state and the RACH is non-synchronized.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MBMS feedback is for counting.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the request for MBMS feedback includes a request for MBMS feedback on a first MBMS service and is received by a plurality of WTRUs, wherein only a subset of the plurality of WTRUs respond to the request for MBMS feedback on the first MBMS service.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein non-MBMS feedback information is sent with the MBMS feedback information sent on the uplink shared channel.

12. The WTRU of claim 5 , wherein the MBMS feedback is for counting.

13. The WTRU of claim 5 , wherein the request for MBMS feedback includes a request for MBMS feedback on a first MBMS service and is received by a plurality of WTRUs, wherein only a subset of the plurality of WTRUs respond to the request for MBMS feedback on the first MBMS service.

14. The WTRU of claim 5 , wherein the transceiver is configured to send non-MBMS feedback information with the MBMS feedback information sent on the uplink shared channel.
