Abstract

Methods and apparatuses enable sending a fast access request in a preamble of a random access request. The fast access request provides for an uplink assignment having bandwidth sufficient to allow the transmission of data with a scheduling request. The fast access request can indicate, for example, a traffic class of a message to be sent. Based on traffic class information, up to a certain additional amount of bandwidth can be allocated for a scheduling procedure for the requesting user device.
