7. A method utilized in a base station, the method comprising:
-
receiving a broadcasted random access (RA) preamble used to initiate an RA procedure from a mobile device; assigning a dedicated RA preamble to the mobile device; transmitting an RA response corresponding to the broadcasted RA preamble to the mobile device and then receiving a scheduled transmission including a cell radio network temporary identity (C_RNTI) from the mobile device; and releasing the dedicated RA preamble when the C_RNTI or a media access control protocol data unit (MAC PDU) from the mobile device is received. - View Dependent Claims (8)

9. A method utilized in a mobile device, the method comprising:
-
transmitting a random access (RA) preamble to a base station; receiving a control message including downlink (DL) data arrival from the base station; transmitting a scheduled transmission message to the base station when an RA response from the base station is received and then starting a contention resolution timer; and before the contention resolution timer expires, transmitting a scheduling request message to the base station. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

16. A mobile device, comprising:
-
a communication unit, for communicating with a base station; and a control unit, for controlling the communication unit; wherein the control unit controls the communication unit to transmit a broadcasted random access (RA) preamble to a base station for initiating a first RA procedure;
the communication unit receives a dedicated RA preamble from the base station after the first RA procedure is initiated; and
the control unit controls the communication unit to transmit the dedicated RA preamble to the base station for initiating a second RA procedure. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A base station, comprising:
-
a communication module, for communicating with a mobile device; and a control module, for controlling the communication module; wherein the communication module receives a broadcasted random access (RA) preamble used to initiate an RA procedure from the mobile device;
the control module controls the communication module to assign a dedicated RA preamble to the mobile device;
the communication module transmits an RA response corresponding to the broadcasted RA preamble to the mobile device and then receives a scheduled transmission including a cell radio network temporary identity (C_RNTI) from the mobile device; and
the control module releases the dedicated RA preamble when the C_RNTI or a media access control protocol data unit (MAC PDU) from the mobile device is received by the communication module. - View Dependent Claims (23)
