Abstract
The disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as a smart home, a smart building, a smart city, a smart car, a connected car, health care, digital education, a smart retail, security and safety services.
Claims20
A method performed by a transmitter in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- constructing at least one radio link control (RLC) protocol data unit (PDU) based on at least one RLC service data unit (SDU) before receiving information associated with a transmission;
- in case that the information associated with the transmission is received, determining whether to segment the at least one RLC SDU;
- and
- in case that the RLC SDU is segmented into a plurality of segments, setting a sequence number (SN) in a header of an RLC PDU of the at least one RLC PDU that contains a segment of the plurality of segments based on a variable value of the SN associated with the at least one RLC PDU.
A transmitter in a wireless communication system, the transmitter comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
- construct at least one radio link control (RLC) protocol data unit (PDU) based on at least one RLC service data unit (SDU) before receiving information associated with a transmission;
- in case that the information associated with the transmission is received, determine whether to segment the at least one RLC SDU;
- and
- in case that the RLC SDU is segmented into a plurality of segments, set a sequence number (SN) in a header of an RLC PDU of the at least one RLC PDU that contains a segment of the plurality of segments based on a variable value of the SN associated with the at least one RLC PDU.
