Abstract
The disclosure relates to a data processing device, comprising: a processing element configured to process a plurality of data packets according to a communication protocol to provide a plurality of processed data packets each comprising a first part and a second part; and an interface configured to offload the second parts of the plurality of processed data packets to a remote data processing device and configured to notify the remote processing device of the offload of the second parts of the plurality of processed data packets.
Claims21
(canceled)
An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) configured for operating in accordance with a cellular communication network protocol, the apparatus comprising:
- processing circuitry;
- and
- memory, including layer-two (L2) buffer storage, the L2 buffer space being split between a first portion and a second portion,
- wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
- decode downlink (DL) protocol data units (PDUs), the DL PDUs including a header portion and a data portion,
- wherein for DL PDUs received within a single transmission time interval (TTI), the processing circuitry is configured to:
- store the header portions of the DL PDUs in the first portion of the L2 buffer space;
- store the data portions of the DL PDUs in the second portion of the L2 buffer space;
- and
- generate signaling to trigger L2 processing of the data portions of the DL PDUs when the data portions of the DL PDUs received within the single TTL are stored in the second portion of the L2 buffer space.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores instructions for execution by processing circuitry of a user equipment (UE) configured for operating in accordance with a cellular communication network protocol, the instructions to configure the processing circuitry to:
- decode downlink (DL) protocol data units (PDUs), the DL PDUs including a header portion and a data portion, wherein for DL PDUs received within a single transmission time interval (TTI), the processing circuitry is configured to:
- store the header portions of the DL PDUs in a first portion of layer two (L2) buffer space;
- store the data portions of the DL PDUs in the second portion of the L2 buffer space;
- and
- generate signaling to trigger L2 processing of the data portions of the DL PDUs when the data portions of the DL PDUs received within the single TTL are stored in the second portion of the L2 buffer space.
A method performed by processing circuitry of a user equipment (UE) configured for operating in accordance with a cellular communication network protocol, the method comprising:
- splitting memory for layer-two (L2) buffer storage between a first portion and a second portion,
- decoding downlink (DL) protocol data units (PDUs), the DL PDUs including a header portion and a data portion,
- wherein for DL PDUs received within a single transmission time interval (TTI), the method comprises:
- storing the header portions of the DL PDUs in the first portion of the L2 buffer space;
- storing the data portions of the DL PDUs in the second portion of the L2 buffer space;
- and
- generating signaling to trigger L2 processing of the data portions of the DL PDUs when the data portions of the DL PDUs received within the single TTL are stored in the second portion of the L2 buffer space.
