Abstract  Abstract

Methods and apparatus for changing cell range coverage are disclosed. The coverage may be changed on a per-subframe basis. An antenna beam elevation tilting angle may be adjusted to provide different effective downlink (DL) coverage. For example a subframe may be a small tilt subframe or a large tilt subframe. A network or evolved NodeB (eNB) may determine data channel transmission power to adjust cell range per subframe. Low Power Subframe (LPS) may be used alone or with Almost Blank Subframe (ABS) to transmit data. Timing Advance (TA) handling for uplink (UL) transmissions is described. A common TA (CTA) may be determined for multi-site UL signaling. UL power control may be determined for UL transmission to multiple sites. Radio Link Monitoring (RLM) may be performed for multiple sites on a carrier frequency. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may maintain synchronization in selected subframes for multiple cells.
