METHOD AND APPARATUS OF PERFORMING SHORT DATA TRANSMISSION BY USER EQUIPMENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18263617 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS OF PERFORMING SHORT DATA TRANSMISSION BY USER EQUIPMENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a method for performing data transmissions in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) INACTIVE state by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. The method involves performing a Short Data Transmission (SDT) procedure for transmitting a data unit in the RRC INACTIVE state. If the SDT procedure fails, the method includes determining whether a radio bearer (RB) of at least one logical channel related to the data unit is Acknowledged Mode (AM) RB or not. If the RB is not the AM RB, the data unit is discarded. If the RB is the AM RB, a RRC message is transmitted to the network to request RRC connection resumption and the retransmission of the data unit is performed in a RRC CONNECTED state.

  • Performing a Short Data Transmission (SDT) procedure for transmitting a data unit in the RRC INACTIVE state
  • Determining whether a radio bearer (RB) is Acknowledged Mode (AM) RB or not
  • Discarding the data unit if the RB is not the AM RB
  • Transmitting a RRC message to request RRC connection resumption if the RB is the AM RB
  • Retransmitting the data unit in a RRC CONNECTED state

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in wireless communication systems to improve data transmission efficiency and reliability, especially when the UE is in an RRC INACTIVE state.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient data transmission in RRC INACTIVE state 2. Ensuring data unit delivery in wireless communication systems

Benefits

Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a method of performing data transmissions in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) INACTIVE state by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Especially, the method includes the steps of performing a Short Data Transmission (SDT) procedure for transmitting a data unit in the RRC INACTIVE state; based on a failure of the SDT procedure being detected, determining whether a radio bearer (RB) of at least one logical channel related to the data unit is Acknowledged Mode (AM) RB or not; based on the RB not being the AM RB, discarding the data unit; and based on the RB being the AM RB, transmitting a RRC message to the network for requesting RRC connection resumption and performing the retransmission of the data unit in a RRC CONNECTED state.
