The method includes generating a message including an indicator indicating whether a connection to perform Automatic Repeat reQuest reset is a downlink connection or an uplink connection and transmitting the message. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: generating a message including an indicator indicating whether a connection to perform Automatic Repeat reQuest reset is a downlink connection or an uplink connection; and transmitting the message. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the message is used to initiate the Automatic Repeat reQuest reset. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the message includes fields for at least one of a Massage type, the indicator, a Flow identifier, a Type, and a Reserved bit. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, wherein the Flow identifier identifies the connection. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the Automatic Repeat reQuest reset comprising: transmitting an original message from an initiator; receiving an Acknowledgement from a responder; and transmitting a confirmation from the initiator. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The method of claim 5, wherein a field for the Type is represented as bit information, if the bit information is ‘0b00’, the message represents the original message, if the bit information is ‘0b01’, the message represents the Acknowledgement, if the bit information is ‘0b10’, the message, and if the bit information is ‘0b11’, the message represents the reserved value. ### Claim 7 A method in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving a message including an indicator indicating whether a connection to perform Automatic Repeat reQuest reset is a downlink connection or an uplink connection. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein the message is used to initiate the Automatic Repeat reQuest. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein the message includes fields for at least one of a Massage type, the indicator, a Flow identifier, a Type, a Reserved bit. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The method of claim 9, wherein the Flow identifier identifies the connection. ### Claim 11 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein the Automatic Repeat reQuest reset comprising: receiving an original message from an initiator; transmitting an Acknowledgement from a responder; and receiving a confirmation from the initiator. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The method of claim 11, wherein a field for the Type is represented as bit information, if the bit information is ‘0b00’, the message represents the original message, if the bit information is ‘0b01’, the message represents the Acknowledgement, if the bit information is ‘0b10’, the message, and if the bit information is ‘0b11’, the message represents the reserved value. ### Claim 13 A transmitter in a wireless communication system, the transmitter comprising: a controller for generating a message including an indicator indicating whether a connection to perform Automatic Repeat reQuest reset is a downlink connection or an uplink connection, and controlling a transceiver for transmitting the message. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The transmitter of claim 13, wherein the message is used to initiate the Automatic Repeat reQuest reset. ### Claim 15 (depends on 13) The transmitter of claim 13, wherein the message includes fields for at least one of a Massage type, the indicator, a Flow identifier, a Type, a Reserved bit. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The transmitter of claim 15, wherein the Flow identifier identifies the connection. ### Claim 17 (depends on 13) The transmitter of claim 13, wherein the Automatic Repeat reQuest reset comprising: transmitting an original message from an initiator; receiving an Acknowledgement from a responder; and transmitting a confirmation from the initiator. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The transmitter of claim 17, wherein a field for the Type is represented as bit information, if the bit information is ‘0b00’, the message represents the original message, if the bit information is ‘0b01’, the message represents the Acknowledgement, if the bit information is ‘0b10’, the message, and if the bit information is ‘0b11’, the message represents the reserved value. ### Claim 19 A receiver in a wireless communication system, the receiver comprising: a transceiver for receiving a message including an indicator indicating whether a connection to perform Automatic Repeat reQuest reset is a downlink connection or an uplink connection. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The receiver of claim 19, wherein the message is used to initiate the Automatic Repeat reQuest. ### Claim 21 (depends on 19) The receiver of claim 19, wherein the message includes fields for at least one of a Massage type, the indicator, a Flow identifier, a Type, a Reserved bit. ### Claim 22 (depends on 21) The receiver of claim 21, wherein the Flow identifier identifies the connection. ### Claim 23 (depends on 19) The receiver of claim 19, wherein the Automatic Repeat reQuest comprising: the transceiver receives an original message from an initiator, transmits an Acknowledgement from a responder, and receives a confirmation from the initiator. ### Claim 24 (depends on 23) The receiver of claim 23, wherein a field for the Type is represented as bit information, if the bit information is ‘0b00’, the message represents the original message, if the bit information is ‘0b01’, the message represents the Acknowledgement, if the bit information is ‘0b10’, the message, and if the bit information is ‘0b11’, the message represents the reserved value.
