Therefore, the transmission of the status report may be delayed to such an extent that the state of the receiver represented by the status report may be out of date even before the status report is sent

Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 A simplified view of communication system 10 is provided, including sending node 110 and receiving node 120. As mentioned above, both the sending node 110 and the receiving node 120 comprise complete transceivers; the terms "send" and "receive" are used to describe specific endpoints in acknowledging data transfers. Thus, sending node 110 sends one or more data units (which may include protocol data units (PDUs)) to receiving node 120, and may also send one or more error control messages, such as polling requests. (As discussed below, error control messages (eg, polls) may be included in the same protocol data unit as the traffic data.) The receiving node 120 may then send one or more error control messages, such as status reports, or retransmissions A request for an unsuccessfully received PDU.

[0023] In some embodiments of the invention, the sending node 110 may comprise an LTE eNodeB and the receiving node 120 may comprise an LTE compatible mobile statio...

Abstract

Methods and apparatus for processing error control messages, such as RLC ARQ control messages, are disclosed. An exemplary method comprises signaling a medium access controller (MAC) that link resources are needed for transmitting data, receiving an indication from the MAC that link resources for transmitting the data are scheduled, and generating an error control message after receiving said indication, based on a current error control status. The error control message is then forwarded to the MAC for transmission. Because the generation of an error control message is delayed until resources for its transmission are scheduled, the queuing of stale control messages is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to wireless communication systems, and more particularly, to the handling of error control messages in wireless systems that schedule link resources. Background technique [0002] The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has initiated a project to develop specifications for advanced wireless communication systems in a proposal known as "Long Term Evolution" or LTE. In standardization discussions, it has been agreed that LTE systems should utilize the Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) mechanism in the Radio Link Control (RLC) protocol. The specified ARQ protocol is a selective repetition protocol (used in "RLC Acknowledgement Mode") that provides a means for sending status reports from the receiving node to the sending node, and for the sending node to poll the status of the receiving node s method. In response to receipt of the status report, the sending node may resend any missing data, or take other appropr...
