Status report triggering in wireless communication system

摘要

A method for status report triggering in a wireless communication entity is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a data unit segment wherein the data unit segment is a portion of an original data unit that has been re-segmented for transmission into a plurality of data unit segments. Then, determining that the data unit segment includes a last segment flag indicating that the data unit segment is a last segment of the plurality of data unit segments. Further, transmitting a status report containing a status report for the re-segmented data unit in response to determining that the data unit segment includes a last segment flag indicating that the data unit segment is a last segment.

1. A method for status report triggering in a wireless communication entity, the method comprising:
receiving a first data unit segment of a re-segmented data unit to produce a first received data unit segment, wherein the re-segmented data unit is an original data unit that has been re-segmented into a plurality of data unit segments, the plurality of data unit segments including at least the first data unit segment and a last data unit segment; responsive to receiving the first data unit segment, starting a timer; receiving a second data unit segment of the re-segmented data unit to produce a second received data unit segment; determining whether the second received data unit segment is the last data unit segment of the plurality of data unit segments; responsive to determining that the second received data unit segment is the last data unit segment of the plurality of data unit segments, transmitting the status report for the re-segmented data unit; responsive to determining that the second received data unit segment is not the last data unit segment of the plurality of data unit segments, determining whether the timer has expired; and responsive to determining that the timer has expired prior to receipt of the last data unit segment of the plurality of data unit segments, transmitting the status report for the re-segmented data unit.
