Method and related apparatus for resetting high speed medium access control entity

A method for resetting a high speed medium access control entity, comprising:

• determining a to-be-reset cell according to a predefined rule, wherein the to-be-reset cell is a cell for which a user equipment undergoing a cell handover needs to reset a high speed medium access control entity;
• and
• sending a reset instruction to the user equipment, so that the user equipment resets the high speed medium access control entity for the to-be-reset cell indicated in the reset instruction, wherein the reset instruction comprises:
• reset indication information of the cell.

A method for resetting a high speed medium access control entity, comprising:

• receiving, by a user equipment, a medium access control (MAC) control instruction sent from a radio network controller, wherein the MAC control instruction is configured to instruct the user equipment to determine a to-be-reset cell from an assisting cell and/or an assisting secondary cell;
• determining, by the user equipment, the to-be-reset cell from the assisting cell and/or the assisting secondary cell according to a predefined rule;
• and
• resetting, by the user equipment, a high speed medium access control entity for the to-be-reset cell.

A user equipment, comprising:

• a receiver, configured to receive a reset instruction sent from a radio network controller, wherein the reset instruction comprises:
• reset indication information of an assisting cell and/or an assisting secondary cell;
• and
• a processor, configured to reset a high speed medium access control entity for the assisting cell and/or the assisting secondary cell according to the reset indication information of the assisting cell and/or the assisting secondary cell.

A network-side device, comprising:

• a processor, configured to determine a to-be-reset cell from an assisting cell and/or an assisting secondary cell according to a predefined rule, wherein the to-be-reset cell is a cell for which a user equipment undergoing a cell handover needs to reset a high speed medium access control entity;
• and
• a transmitter, configured to send a reset instruction to the user equipment, so that the user equipment resets the high speed medium access control entity for the to-be-reset cell indicated in the reset instruction, wherein the reset instruction comprises:
• reset indication information of the assisting cell and/or the assisting secondary cell.
