Abstract
Various solutions for skipping uplink transmission with respect to user equipment and network apparatus in mobile communications are described. An apparatus may determine whether a padding buffer status report (BSR) is included in a protocol data unit (PDU). The apparatus may skip transmission of the PDU when the padding BSR is included in the PDU. The PDU may comprise a medium access control (MAC) PDU. The MAC PDU may comprise no MAC service data unit (SDU).
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- determining, by a processor of an apparatus, whether a padding buffer status report (BSR) is included in a first protocol data unit (PDU);
- and
- skipping, by the processor, transmission of the first PDU when the padding BSR is included in the first PDU.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a transceiver capable of wirelessly communicating with a plurality of nodes of a wireless network;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver, the processor capable of:
- determining whether a padding buffer status report (BSR) is included in a first protocol data unit (PDU);
- and
- skipping transmission of the first PDU when the padding BSR is included in the first PDU.
