First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for uplink timing alignment in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:
- receiving control signaling from an evolved Node B (eNB);
receiving a message for Random Access Channel (RACH) on a secondary cell (SCell);
completing the RACH upon receipt of the message; and
wherein the message includes a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) with at least an 11-bit time advance command (TAC).
