Abstract
The present disclosure relates to base station and method for content synchronization when broadcasting data in a communications network. The base station comprises a receiver receiving data sequences and a transmitter for transmitting data sequences. Each data sequence has a data size and comprises a sequence number (SN). The base station further comprises a processing circuitry configured to add byte numbered sequence numbers to said data sequences passed between layers in a protocol stack for transmission to a transceiver station.

A base station configured to synchronize content when broadcasting data in a communications network, the base station comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive data sequences (PDUs);
- wherein each received data sequence comprises byte-numbered sequence numbers;
- the base station further comprising:
- a transmitter configured to transmit content of the received data sequence;
- and
- processing circuitry configured to synchronize transmission with another base station of the content using said byte-numbered sequence numbers,
- wherein said processing circuitry is configured to determine if a PDU is lost.
A method of a base station for content synchronization when broadcasting data in a communications network, the method comprising:
- receiving data sequences (PDUs);
- wherein each received data sequence comprises byte-numbered sequence numbers;
- transmitting content of the received data sequences in synchronization with another base station using said byte-numbered sequence numbers;
- and
- determining if a PDU is lost.
An arrangement for content synchronization when transmitting data from an infrastructure node in a communications network, said arrangement comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to add byte-numbered sequence numbers to a data sequence for transmission to a base station;
- and
- a transmitter configured to transmit the data sequences with byte-numbered sequence numbers and content to a plurality of base stations,
- wherein said byte-numbered sequence numbers enable content synchronization by the base station and determining if a PDU is lost.
A method of content synchronization when broadcasting data in a communications network, the method comprising:
- adding byte-numbered sequence numbers to content for transmission in a data sequence to a base station;
- and
- transmitting the data sequences with byte-numbered sequence numbers to a plurality of base stations;
- wherein said byte-numbered sequence numbers enable content synchronization by the base station and determining if a PDU is lost.
