APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING FALLBACK ACCESS SCHEMES

摘要

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate random access procedures using one or more fallback access schemes after initial access attempts have failed. UE equipped to determine failure of a first access request (504) to a first base station due to interference from a second base station. Further, a UE equipped to determine the failure can do so and implement one or more fallback access schemes in response to the determination (506). In one example, a fallback access scheme allows the UE to select a secondary carrier frequency for communications with the first base station (508 -510). In another example, a fallback access scheme allows the UE to designate the first base station as inaccessible and communicate with other base stations (512-516).
