INDICATION OF RECEPTION-WINDOW STATUS FOR PACKET DATA UNIT

摘要

Knowledge of packet reception can be important in packet-based communications. For example, certain packet-based communication systems may benefit from signaling of an indication of reception-window status at reception of a packet data unit outside a reception window. A method can include receiving a packet data unit outside a current reception window. The method can also include preparing, upon receiving the packet data unit, an indication of reception window status to be transmitted to a peer protocol entity.
