METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SENDING A BUFFER STATUS REPORT

摘要

A method and device of sending Buffer Status Reports (BSRs) are provided herein. The method includes: determining the type priority sequence of BSR by a user terminal, and selecting and processing one BSR based on the type priority. A user device is also provided. The provided method and device may reduce resource waste because there is no situation that at least two BSRs sending processes are triggered at one time and at least two BSRs are sent at one time.

1. A method for processing buffer status reports (BSRs), comprising:
determining, by a user device, whether there are uplink resources available for sending BSR if a first triggering condition of sending procedure of a first BSR and a second triggering condition of sending procedure of a second BSR have been met; sending, by the user device, a scheduling request (SR) to a network for obtaining the uplink resources if the user device determines the uplink resources are not available for sending a BSR; obtaining, by the user device, the uplink resources; and sending firstly, by the user device, one BSR with higher priority from the first BSR and the second BSR by using the obtained uplink resources to the network; wherein the first BSR and the second BSR comprise two of a regular BSR type, a periodic BSR type, and a padding BSR type, and wherein a regular BSR priority and a periodic BSR priority are higher than a padding BSR priority.
