Abstract
Methods and apparatus for contention-based access in a wireless communication system are disclosed. A base station may determine a contention-based resource allocation comprising a subset of available system resources. Information related to the contention-based resources may be sent to a user device. In addition, state information may be provided to the UE. The UE may generate and send a contention-based uplink transmission consistent with the allocated resources and state information.
