Method and system for computing and sending resource requests and avoiding deadlock situations in mobile communication system

摘要

A method and system for requesting resources to send data packets in a mobile communication system is provided. The method includes calculating a size of a Robust Header Compression (ROHC) feedback packet associated with data packets available for transmitting, creating a Buffer Status Report (BSR) based on the number of data packets available for transmitting and the size of the ROHC feedback packet, sending the BSR to a first network element to allocate resources for the UE for sending the data packets available for transmitting along with ROHC feedback packet and identifying a size of a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) status report when a handover procedure is performed. The BSR is estimated based on the size of the PDCP status report, the number of data packets available for transmitting and the size of the ROHC feedback packet.

1. A method for transmitting a buffer status report (BSR) by a user equipment (UE) performing a handover procedure from a first network element to a second network element in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:
identifying a data packet available for transmitting and packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) control information; generating a BSR based on the data packet and the PDCP control information, the PDCP control information including robust header compression (ROHC) feedback information associated with the data packet available for transmitting and a PDCP status report indicating whether reception of a PDCP protocol data unit (PDU) is successful; transmitting the generated BSR to the second network element, wherein the PDCP status report is transmitted to the second network element based on the BSR as a first PDCP PDU after the UE performs the handover procedure.
