<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce segmentation of radio link control (RLC) service data units (SDUs) while minimizing padding of radio link control (RLC) packet data units (PDUs).SOLUTION: A receiving entity (e.g., evolved base node (eNB)) signals, to a transmitting entity (e.g., user equipment (UE)), parameters of a constraint value such as a maximum padding amount or minimum segmentation size in a transmission-side RLC instance. The transmitting entity receives the signaling of the constraint value such as the maximum padding amount or minimum segmentation size, and sequentially integrates service data units (SDUs) to be transmitted with packet data units (PDUs) on the basis of the constraint value; at an end portion of each PDU, SDU segmentation is used to determine whether to continue to a next PDU or end with padding.</p> |
