Abstract

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate communicating a Buffer Status Report (BSR) from user equipment (UE) while reducing the employment of a RACH procedure. A BSR Prohibit time interval can be triggered by a receipt of uplink data to the UE. The BSR can be conveyed utilizing an uplink-shared channel (UL-SCH) if a Scheduling Request (SR) or a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) occurs within the duration of the BSR Prohibit time interval. The BSR can be communicated utilizing a RACH procedure if a SR or SPS occurs upon the expiration of the BSR Prohibit time interval.
