Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and methods associated with long term evolution (LTE) and wireless local area network aggregation are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an evolved NodeB (eNB) for requesting feedback from a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) receiver may include radio frequency (RF) circuitry and baseband circuitry coupled with the RF circuitry. The baseband circuitry may identify a packet data unit (PDU) to be transmitted to the PDCP receiver, the PDCP receiver to aggregate a first group of PDUs transmitted via a LTE link and a second group of PDUs transmitted via a wireless local area network (WLAN) link. The baseband circuitry may further embed, within the PDU, a poll request for a status of aggregation by the PDCP receiver and cause the RF circuitry to transmit the PDU embedded with the poll request to the PDCP receiver.
