DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18491567 titled 'DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for data transmission in communication technologies. The method involves sending a message from a first network device to a remote terminal device, instructing it to switch from the first network device to a second network device. The first path includes at least one relay terminal device, while the second path may or may not include a relay terminal device. The message carries information about the receiving status of a first PDCP entity of the first network device.
- The method allows for seamless switching of a remote terminal device from one network device to another.
- The first information carried in the switch command enables the remote terminal device to quickly receive the receiving status of the first PDCP entity.
- The method can be used in various communication technologies and networks.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Mobile communication networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) networks
- Wireless communication systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Seamless handover of a remote terminal device from one network device to another
- Efficient transmission of information about the receiving status of a network device
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved connectivity and reliability in communication networks
- Reduced latency in switching between network devices
- Enhanced performance and user experience in mobile and IoT networks
Original Abstract Submitted
This application provides a data transmission method and an apparatus, and relates to the field of communication technologies. According to the method, a first network device sends a first message including first information to a remote terminal device. The first message indicates the remote terminal device to switch from being connected to the first network device through a first path to being connected to a second network device through a second path. The first path includes at least one relay terminal device. The second path includes at least one relay terminal device or does not include a relay terminal device. The first information indicates a receiving status of a first PDCP entity of the first network device. The first information is carried in a switch command, so that the remote terminal device can receive the first information as soon as possible.
