Abstract

A wireless device may receive configuration parameters of cells comprising a primary cell that is not configured with scheduling request (SR) resources and a secondary cell that is configured with SR resources and that is in a secondary timing advance group (sTAG). A wireless device may determine to perform an SR process. Based on the wireless device not having an uplink data channel resource available in a time interval and not having a valid timing advance for the secondary cell in the time interval, the wireless device may initiate a random access procedure.
