摘要:
A communications device utilized in a wireless communications system has an RLC entity with a transmitting side and a receiving side. Handling timers during reestablishment of the transmitting side includes only reestablishing the transmitting side in the RLC entity of the communications device, stopping a first timer corresponding to the transmitting side, and prolonging and not stopping a second timer corresponding to the transmitting side. The second timer is not a periodic timer.

A wireless communications system has a communications device, which has an RLC entity having a transmitting side and a receiving side. When re-establishing the transmitting side, to handle control PDUs, only the transmitting side in the RLC entity of the communications device is re-established, a first control PDU corresponding to the transmitting side is discarded, and a second control PDU corresponding to the receiving side is retained and not discarded.

A method for handling de-activation of a first Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) process used in a mobile of a wireless communications system includes receiving a Primary Absolute Grant (AG) message indicating to de-activate the first HARQ process, de-activating the first HARQ process, and activating all HARQ processes and using a grant provided by a Secondary AG message as a serving grant if all the HARQ processes are de-activated and a secondary grant function is configured.

A method of polling in a wireless communications system includes prohibiting polling within a predetermined period and triggering a poll function while polling is prohibited. After the predetermined period has expired the method determines that there are no protocol data units (PDUs) scheduled for transmission or re-transmission and that the poll function was triggered by a “Last PDU in Retransmission buffer” trigger, and selects a PDU to schedule for re-transmission to fulfill the poll function.

A method for detecting an erroneous sequence number in a status report in a wireless communications system includes receiving a status report sent from a receiver of the wireless communications system, detecting whether a negatively acknowledged sequence number is within a range that is larger than or equal to the sequence number following the sequence number of the last in-sequence acknowledged packet and smaller than the sequence number of the next packet to be transmitted for the first time, and detecting that the status report includes an erroneous sequence number when a negatively acknowledged sequence number is not within the abovementioned range.
摘要:
A method for handling packet discard in a transmitter of a wireless communications system includes activating a “use of a special value of a header extension field” mode, discarding a plurality of service data units, wherein the last service data unit of the plurality of service data units ends at an end of a first protocol data unit using the special value in a header extension field, and setting a value of a field to be a sequence number of a second protocol data unit, wherein the field is utilized for indicating a receiver to discard all not yet successfully received service data units that have segments with sequence number being less than the value of the field, and the second protocol data unit is next to the first protocol data unit.
摘要:
A method of polling in a wireless communications system includes prohibiting polling within a predetermined period and triggering a poll function while polling is prohibited. After the predetermined period has expired the method determines that there are no protocol data units (PDUs) scheduled for transmission or re-transmission and that the poll function was triggered by a “Every Poll_PDU PDU” trigger, and selects a PDU to schedule for re-transmission to fulfill the poll function.
摘要:
Whenever the Receiver of this invention receives an AMD PDU or a UMD PDU with its “Length Indicator” having an invalid or a reserved value, the Receiver discards such a PDU and treats it as never received. The Receiver may report its receiving status accordingly if a report is required. This invention avoids invoking unnecessary RLC reset procedures and reduces the chance of losing HFN synchronization during AM or UM data transmissions.

To enhance the efficiency of packet discard, the present invention provides a method of packet discard for a receiver in a wireless communications system. The method comprises setting a discard timer used for triggering packet discard in an Automatic Repeat Request process, reporting a negative acknowledgment signal and starting the discard timer when a packet corresponding to a missing sequence number is detected to be not retransmitted by a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request process any more, and stopping receiving the packet corresponding to the missing sequence number when the discard timer expires and the packet is not successfully received.

A method for handling protocol errors in a receiver of a wireless communications system includes receiving a ciphered PDU, deciphering the PDU, and triggering a reset procedure when at least one field of the PDU comprises an invalid value.
