Method and system for bearer management in a third generation mobile telecommunications system

摘要

In a telecommunication device the handling of data to be transmitted proceeds according to a protocol stack having a L3 layer and a MAC layer. For handling data flows between the L3 layer and the MAC layer the following steps are perfomed:a flow of data to be transmitted coming from the L3 layer is demultiplexed into a number of component data flows, each component data flow having a certain Quality of Service requirement,the component data flows are arranged into groups where the Quality of Service requirement of each component data flow in a group is similar to the Quality of Service requirements of the other component data flows belonging to the same group,the component data flows are multiplexed groupwise into multiplexed data flows andthe multiplexed data flows are outputted to the MAC layer.
