A method of requesting a communication resource by a wireless communication unit operating in a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system provides for uplink and downlink channels. The method includes the steps of: allocating a dedicated communication channel to said wireless communication unit by a wireless communication serving unit; transmitting a communication resource request message (130) on said dedicated uplink channel by said wireless communication unit (110) to said wireless communication serving unit (120); and transmitting an access allocation message (140) to said wireless communication unit (110) from said wireless communication serving unit (120) on said dedicated downlink channel. A communication system and communication unit are also provided. This provides the advantage that a dedicated channel is used for requesting shared resources thereby avoiding various problems, including clashes, associated with using a random access channel.

A method for obtaining access to a physical uplink shared channel by a mobile station for which a dedicated transport channel is assigned in a wireless communication system, comprising: transmitting, by the mobile station, a physical uplink shared channel capacity request message over an uplink of the dedicated transport channel; and receiving, by the mobile station, a physical uplink shared channel capacity allocation message over a downlink of the dedicated transport channel. 6. The method of claim 5, further comprising transmitting, by the mobile station, uplink data over an allocated physical uplink shared channel as specified by the received physical uplink shared channel capacity allocation message. 7. The method of claim 5, wherein computer executable instructions stored on a computer-readable medium, when executed by a processor of the mobile station, cause the processor to perform the recited method. 8. The method of claim 5, wherein the wireless communication system is specified, at least in part, by a Third Generation Partnership Project specification of the 3G TS 25.xxx series of wide-band, code-division multiple access UTRAN radio interface specifications. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein (i) the mobile station is a user equipment (UE), (ii) the dedicated transport channel is a DCH, and (iii) the physical uplink shared channel capacity request message is a PUSCH CAPACITY REQUEST message. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the user equipment (UE) is in a cell_DCH state. 11. A method for granting access to a physical uplink shared channel in a wireless communication system by a base transceiver station over a dedicated transport channel that has been established for a mobile station, comprising: receiving, by the base transceiver station, a physical uplink shared channel capacity request message over an uplink of the dedicated transport channel; and transmitting, by the base transceiver station, a physical uplink shared channel capacity allocation message over a downlink of the dedicated transport channel. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein computer executable instructions stored on a computer-readable medium, what executed by a processor of the base transceiver station, cause the processor to perform the recited method. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the wireless communication system is specified, at least in part, by a Third Generation Partnership Project specification of the 3G TS 25.xxx series of wide-band, code-division multiple access UTRAN radio interface specifications. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein (i) the base transceiver station is a Node B, (ii) the dedicated transport channel is a DCH, and (iii) the physical uplink shared channel capacity request message is a PUSCH CAPACITY REQUEST message. 15. A mobile station for use with a wireless communication system, comprising: a controller configured to accept a dedicated transport channel assignment; a transmitter configured to transmit a physical uplink shared channel capacity request message over an uplink of the dedicated transport channel; and a receiver configured to receive a physical uplink shared channel capacity allocation message over a downlink of the assigned dedicated transport channel. 16. The mobile station of claim 15, wherein the wireless communication system is specified, at least in part, by a Third Generation Partnership Project specification of the 3G TS 25.xxx series of wide-band, code-division multiple access UTRAN radio interface specifications. 17. The mobile station of claim 15, wherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit uplink data over an allocated physical uplink shared channel as specified by the received physical uplink shared channel capacity allocation message. 18. A base transceiver station for use with a wireless communication system, comprising: a transmitter configured to transmit a message granting a dedicated transport channel assignment; and a receiver configured to receive a physical uplink shared channel capacity request message over an uplink of to assigned dedicated transport channel; wherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit a physical uplink shared channel capacity allocation message over a downlink of the assigned dedicated transport channel. 19. The base transceiver station of claim 18, wherein the wireless communication system is specified, at least in part, by a Third Generation Partnership Project specification of the 3G TS 25.xxx series of wide-band, code-division multiple access UTRAN radio interface specifications. 20.
