Abstract
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may initiate a random access. The WTRU may determine whether to select a first random access channel (RACH) procedure or a second RACH procedure for the random access. The first RACH procedure may be a legacy RACH procedure. The second RACH procedure may be an enhanced RACH (eRACH) procedure. The WTRU may determine whether to select the first RACH procedure or the second RACH procedure based at least on a type of uplink data to be transmitted. When the second RACH procedure is selected, the WTRU may determine at least one physical random access channel (PRACH) resource associated with the second RACH procedure. The WTRU may determine a preamble sequence associated with the second RACH procedure. The WTRU may determine a data resource for the uplink data. The WTRU may send a RACH transmission that includes the preamble sequence and the uplink data.
