Method and apparatus for buffered data delay reporting in a wireless communication system

Abstract

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Embodiments herein disclose methods for handling a buffered data delay reporting for an XR service in a wireless network (300) by a UE (100). The method includes determining and composing the buffered data delay reporting including a delay information field for the XR service. The delay information field is included in a MAC CE, and the delay information field is associated with a corresponding buffer data size field included in the MAC CE, and the MAC CE pertains to the XR service. Further, the method includes sending the buffered data delay reporting to a network entity (200). The proposed method can be used for providing an efficient buffered data delay reporting for extended reality in the wireless networks with improved user experience.
