Radio link control for latency-sensitive services

A method, comprising:

• determining, by one or more processors, whether a protocol data unit (PDU) of an extended reality (XR) application to be transmitted via a radio link control (RLC) layer corresponds to a low-loss traffic or a loss-tolerant traffic;
• encoding, by the one or more processors, the PDU for error protection, according to the determination;
• and
• selecting, by the one or more processors, from a plurality of configurations for retransmission, a configuration for retransmission of the PDU, according to the determination.

A device receiving protocol data units (PDUs) from a remote device, comprising:

• one or more processors configured to:
• receive, from a remote device, information on whether a protocol data unit (PDU) of an extended reality (XR) application to be transmitted via a radio link control (RLC) layer corresponds to a low-loss traffic or a loss-tolerant traffic;
• decode the PDU for error protection, according to the information;
• and
• select, from a plurality of configurations for retransmission, a configuration for retransmission of the PDU from the remote device, according to the information.
