COMMUNICATION OF INFORMATION ON BUNDLING OF PACKETS IN A TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

Systems and methods are described to communicate information that specifies bundling of packets and to respond to the bundling in a wireless communication environment. A user equipment (UE) performs bundling of data packets without reliance on a radio resource grant. The UE can generate a bundling report comprising information that specifies at least in part the bundling and transmits the bundling report to a base station. The information can convey a number of bundled data packets; a number of unbundled data packets at the user equipment; an amount of bundled data at the mobile device; or a combination thereof. The UE can transmit the bundling report in accordance with a preconfigured delivery mode or can receive from the base station an indication of a delivery mode to transmit the bundling report. The base station can utilize the information conveyed in the bundling report to schedule radio resource(s).
