US 11,010,292 B2 · Method and system for dynamic memory management in a user equipment (UE)

Abstract

A method of dynamic memory management in a user equipment (UE) is provided. The method includes receiving, by the UE, transport block size (TBS) information, from a base station (BS), associated with a data packet to be transmitted by the BS to the UE; identifying, by the UE, a plurality of empty bins and a size of each of the plurality of empty bins in a memory of the UE; detecting, by the UE, a presence of one or more empty bins, among the plurality of empty bins in the memory, with a size of each of the one or more empty bins greater than the TBS of the data packet; and allocating, by the UE, a smallest size empty bin, with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet, among the one or more empty bins to the data packet.

A method of dynamic memory management in a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), transport block size (TBS) information associated with a data packet to be transmitted by the BS to the UE;
identifying a plurality of empty bins and a size of each of the plurality of empty bins in a memory of the UE;
determining, from the plurality of empty bins, whether at least one empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet exists;
and
in case that the at least one empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet exists:
transmitting, to the BS, information indicating a presence of the at least one empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet;
and
allocating, from among the at least one empty bin, a smallest size empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet, to the data packet.

A user equipment (UE) for dynamic memory management, the UE comprising:

a processor;
and
a memory communicatively coupled to the processor;
wherein the processor is configured to:
receive, from a base station (BS), transport block size (TBS) information associated with a data packet to be transmitted by the BS to the UE;
identify a plurality of empty bins and a size of each of the plurality of empty bins in the memory of the UE;
determine, from the plurality of empty bins, whether at least one empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet exists;
and
in case that the at least one empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet exists:
transmit, to the BS, information indicating presence of the at least one empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet;
and
allocate, from among the at least one empty bin, a smallest size empty bin with a size greater than the TBS of the data packet, to the data packet.
