A method and apparatus for processing a Buffer Status Report (BSR) are disclosed in the disclosure. At least one of the following processing steps is performed when the BSR is transmitted using Contention Based (CB) uplink resources: A. restarting no retransmission BSR timer (retxBSR_Timer) when an uplink grant indicating CB uplink resources is received; B. restarting no retxBSR_Timer and/or no periodic BSR timer (PeriodicBSR_Timer) when the uplink resources are available; C. cancelling no triggered BSR when a BSR-related Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit (MAC PDU) is formed by occupying the uplink resources; and cancelling the triggered BSR when an indication for a successful transmission of the BSR-related MAC PDU is received; D. determining, according to a type of a triggered BSR, whether or not to cancel the triggered BSR, when a BSR-related MAC PDU is formed by occupying the uplink resources; and cancelling the triggered BSR when an indication for a successful transmission of the BSR-related MAC PDU is received. With the disclosure, the influence on User Equipment (UE) due to the failure of the BSR transmission when the BSR is transmitted by occupying the CB uplink transmission resources is decreased.
