Method and apparatus for configuring minimum guaranteed bit rate in wireless communication system

摘要

A method for configuring bit rate in a user equipment (UE) for use in a wireless communication system includes receiving guaranteed bit rate information comprising one or more bit rates which are supported by a base station (BS) for communications with the UE, selecting a minimum guaranteed bit rate responsive to user input received at the UE, the minimum guaranteed bit rate being a bit rate identified by the guaranteed bit rate information, generating a first request message requesting the selected minimum guaranteed bit rate, transmitting the first request message from the UE to the BS, the first request message including a request for receiving communications from the BS at the selected minimum guaranteed bit rate, receiving a response message from the BS in response to the first request message, and receiving data from the BS at a bit rate which is at or greater than the selected minimum guaranteed bit rate when the response message comprises an acknowledgement (ACK) message.

1. A method for configuring bit rate in a user equipment (UE) for use in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving guaranteed bit rate information from a base station (BS), the guaranteed bit rate information comprising one or more bit rates that are supported by the BS for communications with the UE; displaying each value of the one or more bit rates included in the guaranteed bit rate information received from the BS on a display of the UE; selecting one of the displayed one or more bit rates as a minimum guaranteed bit rate in response to user input received at the UE; generating a first request message requesting the selected minimum guaranteed bit rate; transmitting the first request message from the UE to the BS, the first request message including a request for receiving communications from the BS at the selected minimum guaranteed bit rate; receiving a response message from the BS in response to the first request message; receiving data from the BS at a bit rate, which is at or greater than the selected minimum guaranteed bit rate, when the response message comprises an acknowledgement (ACK) message; and displaying each value of at least one recommended bit rate on the display when the response message comprises a negative acknowledgement (NACK) message, wherein the NACK message includes information about the at least one recommended bit rate, and wherein the at least one recommended bit rate that is supported by the BS is less than the minimum guaranteed bit rate.
