APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERATING AND PARSING A MAC PDU IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

An apparatus and a method for generating and separating an MAC(Media Access Control) PDU(Protocol Data Unit) are provided to increase a data processing speed by simplifying an MAC PDU configuration process. An RLC(Radio Link Control) unit confirms an LCID(Logical Channel Identifier) of an MAC SDU(Service Data Unit). The RLC unit confirms the size of the preset length field and sets the size of the length field for the MAC SDU. The header generator generates the MAC header including the length field and the LCID for the MAC SDU(513). The header generator adds the MAC header to a payload including the MAC SDU and generates the MAC PDU(515). The multiplexer multiplexes the MAC header and the MAC SDU.
