Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining a vertical beam for reception are disclosed herein. A method in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) includes that the WTRU may receive a broadcast message from an evolved Node B (eNB) that includes information associated with a plurality of beam reference signals, wherein the information includes at least one set of Physical Random Access Control Channel (PRACH) resources associated with each of the plurality of beam reference signals. Further, the WTRU may measure reference signals transmitted on each of the plurality of beam reference signals. Then, the WTRU may select a beam reference signal from among the plurality of beam reference signals. In addition, the WTRU may transmit a PRACH preamble in a set of resources associated with the selected beam reference signal. The WTRU may then receive further communications from the eNB.

Abstract: A method, device, and system for a reporting process. A home monitoring device may be equipped with a camera or some type of sensor. The home monitoring device may generate data based on input from the camera or sensor. A reporting device may receive the data from a home monitoring device. The reporting device may assess this information to determine if an event has occurred. The reporting device may send a message including the data based on the determination. The reporting device may establish a multiway communication between the home monitoring device, the user interface, and the reporting device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for mitigating in-device interference are described. The methods may include an in-device interference event (e.g. an interference situation), and the processing of events may depend on the priority of the technologies. A handover to another frequency or radio access technology (RAT) may occur in case a co-existing technology may be activated. The network may signal to the device a list of frequencies or RATs that it may be allowed to measure and handoff to. A network may provide a scaling value that the device may use to speed up reaction to the interference. The device may apply a scaling factor to an “out of synch’ counter and/or the radio link failure (RLF) timer used for the RLF procedure. The device may apply different scaling factors for the measurements and time to trigger events. The device may trigger a report to the network requesting gaps for an alternate RAT.

The WTRU may be configured to eliminate triggers caused by virtual PHRs. Furthermore, the WTRU may be configured to respond to rapid changes to backoff.

Abstract: A method for performing measurements in a device with at least two radio access technologies (RATs) is disclosed. The method may include establishing a first measurement schedule on a first RAT, and establishing a first transmission schedule for a second RAT. The method may further include changing at least one of the first measurement schedule or the first transmission schedule to prevent measurements of the first measurement schedule from occurring contemporaneously with transmissions of the first transmission schedule. Transmissions from the second RAT may interfere with measurements on the first RAT. The method may include transitioning from the first measurement mode to a second measurement mode based determining the second RAT is operating on potentially interfering frequency.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for power control for wireless transmissions on multiple component carriers corresponding to multiple serving cells associated with multiple timing advances are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may determine transmit powers for a first physical channel for a first serving cell in a first timing advanced group (TAG) and a second physical channel for a second serving cell in a second TAG. The first TAG may less timing advanced than the second TAG. The WTRU may determine a WTRU configured maximum output power (PCMAX) for an overlapping portion, which may be a portion of a transmission of the first channel in a first subframe that overlaps in time with a portion of a transmission of the second channel in a next subframe. The WTRU may adjust the channels such that a sum of their transmit powers in the overlapping portion does not exceed the determined PCMAX.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to describe cell selection in low cost machine type communication (LC-MTC) devices. An LTC-MC device may measure a plurality of downlink signals from a plurality of cells. The LTC-MC may detect a channel condition, e.g., by determining a cell with better uplink coverage than a downlink cell. The detection of the channel condition may include measuring an uplink pathloss.

The channel condition may be reported, e.g., via a set of Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) preambles. The set of PRACH preambles may be predefined. The channel condition may be reported via a higher layer signaling.
