SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EFFICIENTLY DETECTING THE IDENTIFICATION OF A RECEIVED SIGNAL

摘要

A system and method in a wireless communication network that efficiently determine when a message is intended for a particular wireless transmit/receive unit WTRU. In accordance with the present invention, each WTRU is configured to receive communications on multiple communication channels. The WTRU receives and processes incoming signals on the multiple communication channels at the physical layer for an indication of which, if any, of the multiple communication channels is intended for the WTRU. If the indication is consistent with an expected indication for that mobile unit, the mobile unit accesses the particular communication channel and processes the information being sent therein.
