Abstract  Abstract

A method for use in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) for initial access using a system signature or signature sequence is described herein. The WTRU may receive a system signature from at least one transmission-reception points (TRP) of a plurality of TRPs. The system signature may be associated with a numerology a network slice a discontinuous transmission (DTX) state a control channel characteristic and/or a network service. The WTRU may then determine with use of a stored access table a resource selection an initial access method of a plurality of initial access methods a network slice a network service or a group of the at least one TRP. The WTRU may then receive at least one random access response (RAR) message from the at least one TRP. The WTRU may then associate with the at least on TRP based on the received at least one RAR message.
