Abstract
A method and apparatus of reporting an amount of information in a wireless communication system is provided. A user equipment reports a first part indicating that an amount of information is larger than a specific value, and reports a second part indicating the amount of the information.
Claims12
A method of reporting an amount of information in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- reporting, by a user equipment, a first part of a buffer status report (BSR) indicating that the amount of information is larger than a specific value, wherein the information is a buffer size of the user equipment included in the BSR and the first part is reported when the buffer size exceeds the specific value;
- and
- reporting, by the user equipment, a second part of the BSR indicating the amount of the information,
- wherein:
- the first part and the second part are included in a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU);
- the BSR includes a short BSR and a long BSR;
- the first part and the second part are included in both the short BSR and the long BSR;
- the amount of the information indicated by the second part is an excess buffer size with respect to the specific value;
- and
- a location of the second part within the MAC PDU is determined by a type of the BSR.

An apparatus for reporting an amount of information in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:
- a radio frequency unit for receiving and transmitting radio signals;
- a processor operatively coupled with the radio frequency unit and configured for:
- reporting a first part of a buffer status report (BSR) indicating that the amount of information is larger than a specific value, wherein the information is a buffer size of the apparatus included in the BSR and the first part is reported when the buffer size exceeds the specific value;
- and
- reporting a second part indicating the amount of the information,
- wherein:
- the first part and the second part are included in a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU);
- the BSR includes a short BSR and a long BSR;
- the first part and the second part are included in both the short BSR and the long BSR;
- the amount of the information indicated by the second part is an excess buffer size with respect to the specific value;
- and
- a location of the second part within the MAC PDU is determined by a type of the BSR.
