Transmission parameter negotiation after packet-switched handover

摘要

A user equipment (UE) includes a resettable timer that clocks a period after a successful packet-switched handover in a communication system. If a command message for setting packet-data transmission parameters is not received from the network before the period elapses, the UE starts a transmission-parameter negotiation if the UE wishes to do so. In this way, a UE can negotiate optimal parameters for packet-data transmission.
