WIRELESS TRANSMIT RECEIVE UNIT HAVING A TRANSITION STATE FORTRANSITIONING FROM MONITORING TO DUPLEX CONNECTED STATES AND METHOD

摘要

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and method for wireless uplink communication to and downlink communication from a wireless network are provided. The WTRU has a selectively configurable transceiver that has a network connected mode defined by a plurality of functional states including at least one monitoring state and a duplex state. The transceiver is configured to transition from a monitoring state upon occurrence of predefin ed WTRU events that are each associated with a respective uplink procedure initiation communication where at least one of procedures results in a netwo rk response that includes a temporary identifier. The transceiver is configurab le into a transition state wherein the transceiver is configured to send only t he uplink initiation communications and is otherwise configured only for downli nk communications.
