Abstract:
An Automatic Retransmission reQuest (ARQ) data block reception apparatus and method in a communication system is provided. In the ARQ method, an ARQ feedback Information Element (IE) is transmitted to an ARQ data block transmission apparatus. The ARQ feedback IE includes a first field for indicating a Connection IDentifier (CID) of an ARQ connection, a second field for indicating the presence/absence of an additional ARQ feedback IE after the ARQ feedback IE, a third field for indicating a type of an Acknowledgement (ACK) MAP included in the ARQ feedback IE, a fourth field for indicating a Block Sequence Number (BSN) of an ARQ data block, and m ACK MAP fields. The m ACK MAP fields each include information indicating presence/absence of an additional ACK MAP field after a corresponding ACK MAP field, and an ACK MAP indicating success/failure in normal reception for each of n ARQ data blocks, wherein m and n each denote an integer greater than or equal to 1.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for delivering buffer status information to a target base station, to which a mobile station has decided to hand over, by a serving base station in a communication system. The method includes the steps of constructing buffer status information containing a first parameter indicating the number of a smallest packet among packets within a predetermined section stored in a buffer, a second parameter indicating the number of a packet to be transmitted at a next point of time, a third parameter indicating the number of a first packet, the lifetime of which has not yet expired, and a fourth parameter indicating whether or not an instruction to initialize the buffer status information has been transmitted to the mobile station; and transmitting a message containing the constructed buffer status information to the target base station.

Abstract:
A method for operating a Base Station (BS) in a wireless communication system includes, when a bandwidth request message is received from a Mobile Station (MS), whether a resource allocated to the MS exists is determined. When the resource allocated to the MS does not exist, a resource is temporarily allocated to the MS. A message indicating a network initial entry is transmitted to the MS using the temporarily allocated resource.
