A data structure for a layer 2 protocol data unit in a wireless communications protocol has a sequence number region that holds a sequence number for indicating a sequential ordering of a first PDU in a stream of PDUs. A length indicator array follows the sequence number field, and has at least a final length indicator. The final length indicator is the last length indicator in the length indicator array and is n bits in length. An SDU array follows the length indicator array. The SDU array has at least a final SDU data block. The final SDU data block is the last SDU in the SDU array. The final length indicator indicates a position of the end of the final SDU block within the first PDU. Finally, a padding area is after the final SDU block. The padding area fills the remainder of the first PDU. The padding area is less than n bits in length and carries no layer 2 SDU data.
