Abstract:
A method and apparatus for prioritizing data packets when stateful compression is enabled for wireless communications is disclosed. For example, the aspects include receiving a plurality of data packets scheduled in a first order for transmission. The described aspects further include prioritizing one or more data packets of the plurality of data packets as one or more prioritized data packets, each prioritized data packet being scheduled in an order for transmission different from the first order for transmission. The described aspects further include compressing one or more unprioritized data packets of the plurality of data packets into one or more compressed unprioritized data packets. The described aspects further include scheduling the one or more prioritized data packets and the one or more compressed unprioritized data packets in a second order for transmission, the second order differing from the first order.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may monitor packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) counter values associated with PDCP packets. The UE may control a PDCP mode of the UE based at least in part on the monitoring of the PDCP counter values. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Methods and equipments provide mechanisms for delivering out-of-order PDCP PDUs to the PDCP sublayer. In a user equipment configured for dual connectivity between LTE and NR, upon delivering at least one out-of-order PDCP PDU from the RLC sublayer to the PDCP sublayer, a PDCP reordering timer may be initialized. To prevent discarding of LTE PDCP PDUs while the RLC sublayer is performing a retransmission procedure, prior to expiration of the PDCP reordering timer, the out-of-order LTE PDCP PDUs mapped to decoded LTE RLC PDUs may be delivered from the RLC sublayer to the PDCP sublayer without reordering thereof. When the PDCP reordering timer expires, any LTE PDCP PDUs mapped to missing LTE RLC PDUs may be discarded.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for wireless communication and more particularly for recovering missing RLC PDUs. In aspects, a method for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE) is provided. The method includes determining whether one or more grant conditions are met, and transmitting a partial status protocol data unit (PDU) and a buffer status report (BSR) based on the one or more grant conditions being met before starting a status prohibit timer if the one or more grant conditions are met. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. In aspects, the apparatus may be a user equipment (UE). However, the apparatus may be implemented as another wireless communications device, such as a base station (e.g., evolved Node B). The apparatus may determine that the apparatus is to operate in a low-latency mode. The apparatus may configure at least one layer of the apparatus to operate in the low-latency mode based on the determination that the apparatus is to operate in the low-latency mode. The apparatus may communicate with a network through the configured at least one layer.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may transmit a session initiation protocol (SIP) message. The apparatus may initiate a timer based at least in part on the transmission of the SIP message. The apparatus may trigger, based at least in part on expiration of the timer, at least one of: a radio link failure (RLF) procedure for cell selection, or an out of service (OOS) procedure for radio access technology (RAT) selection.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A receiving device may receive, at a first operational layer of the receiving device, one or more protocol data units (PDUs) within a set of PDUs. The receiving device may identify, at a second operational layer of the receiving device, a sequence gap associated with a missing PDU from the set of PDUs, the first operational layer being a lower operational layer of the receiving device than the second operational layer. The receiving device may determine, at the second operational layer, that a triggering condition associated with the missing PDU has occurred. The receiving device may provide, by the second operational layer and based at least in part on the triggering condition occurring, an indication to update a reception buffer of the first operational layer to a last received protocol data unit of the set of PDUs.

Abstract:
Aspects directed towards Quality of Service (QoS) flow remapping are disclosed. In an example, upon detecting a mapping reconfiguration of a first QoS flow from a first data radio bearer (DRB) to another DRB, a Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) control protocol data unit (PDU) is generated indicating that a final SDAP data PDU associated with the first QoS flow has been transmitted on the first DRB. The SDAP control PDU is then transmitted via the first DRB. In another example, upon detecting a mapping reconfiguration of a first QoS flow from a first DRB to another DRB, an end marker parameter is set in an SDAP header of a first SDAP data PDU received from an upper layer after the mapping reconfiguration indicating that the first SDAP data PDU is a final SDAP data PDU associated with the first QoS flow transmitted on the first DRB.
