METHOD AND UNIT FOR EFFICIENT REPORTING OF SCHEDULING INFORMATION IN A WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and arrangement in a wireless communication system for efficient reporting of scheduling information processed in a unit of said system. The method comprises the steps of adaptively selecting a buffer status report format that is most efficient for the momentary buffer content for indicating the buffer fill levels of the scheduler, and encoding said buffer fill levels such as to minimize the number of bits needed to encode the information.
