Open loop HARQ in wireless systems
A WTRU may be configured to perform logical channel prioritization. A WTRU may receive an indication (e.g., a mapping) that indicates an association between a first HARQ process ID and a first HARQ processing type and between a second HARQ process ID and a second HARQ processing type. The WTRU may receive an indication (e.g., a mapping) that indicates an association between a first logical channel and the first HARQ processing type and between a second logical channel and the second HARQ processing type. The WTRU may receive an a HARQ process ID indication. The WTRU may determine a HARQ processing type associated with the HARQ process ID. The WTRU may determine a logical channel available for a transmission. The logical channel available to be used may be determined based on the HARQ processing type associated with the HARQ process ID. The WTRU may send the transmission.

if the HARQ process ID is associated with the second HARQ processing type, the second logical channel is determined to be available for use for the transmission.
3. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the transmission is a scheduling request (SR), and wherein the processor is further configured to send the SR on the logical channel available for use.
4. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the transmission is sent using the logical channel available for use.
5. The WTRU of claim 1 , wherein the first HARQ processing type is associated with a first power parameter and the second HARQ processing type is associated with a second power parameter.
6. The WTRU of claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to send the transmission using the logical channel available for use, wherein the transmission is associated with a power parameter, wherein the power parameter is the first power parameter or the second power parameter, wherein the first power parameter is a first power offset, a first fractional power value, a first transmit power command (TPC) command, or a first target power, and wherein the second power parameter is a second power offset, a second fractional power value, a second TPC command, or a second target power.
7. A method associated with hybrid automatic request (HARQ) processing, the method comprising:

receiving an indication of an association between a first logical channel and the first HARQ processing type and between a second logical channel and the second HARQ processing type;
receiving an uplink (UL) grant that indicates a HARQ process ID;
determining a HARQ processing type associated with the HARQ process ID, wherein the determined HARQ processing type is the first HARQ processing type or the second HARQ processing type;
on a condition that the HARQ processing type is determined to be the first HARQ processing type, selecting the first logical channel to use for a transmission associated with the UL grant;
on a condition that the HARQ processing type is determined to be the second HARQ processing type, selecting the second logical channel to use for the transmission associated with the UL grant; and
sending the transmission using the UL grant.
