Support for User Equipment Multiplexing in Relay Enhanced Networks

摘要

An apparatus, method, system and computer program product can be capable of supporting user equipment multiplexing in relay enhanced networks. The apparatus includes a unit configured to process a first data packet header element of fixed length which identifies a bearer or a logical channel; a unit configured to process a configuration parameter indicating the length of an additional second data packet header element inclusive of a length of zero, wherein a combination of the first data packet header element and the second data packet header element identifies a bearer or a logical channel of a user equipment; and a unit configured to process data of different user equipment in a transport block data packet by utilizing a packet header of the transport block data packet including a respective combination of the first data packet header element and the second data packet header element for each different combination of bearer or logical channel and user equipment.
