A wireless device with dual connectivity may transmit split bearer traffic including a plurality of compressed data packets respectively to a first RLC entity of a first base station and a second RLC entity of a second base station and measure BLERs of the transmitted split bearer traffic. Based on the measured BLERs of the transmitted split bearer traffic, the wireless device may transmit uncompressed data packets to one or more of the first RLC entity or the second RLC entity. The wireless device may also reset a context memory and transmit the uncompressed data packets to the first RLC entity and the second RLC entity. A base station with dual connectivity may configure an LTE RLC entity with an RLC out-of-order delivery to deliver the received compressed data packets to an NR-PDCP entity without reordering the compressed data packets at the LTE RLC entity.

Method and apparatus for decompression failure of transmission of split compressed data packet

In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes determining a number of bytes in a compressed queue and a number of bytes in an uncompressed queue. The method also includes transmitting a buffer status report (BSR) indicating at least the number of bytes in the compressed queue. The method includes receiving an uplink grant indicating one or more uplink grant resources and a number of bytes allocated for the one or more uplink grant resources. The method also includes generating a transport block (TB) based on the uplink grant and the BSR and from data of at least the compressed queue, wherein the TB includes one or more compressed packets and one or more uncompressed packets. The method further includes transmitting a PUSCH transmission including the TB during an uplink grant resource of the one or more uplink grant resources. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

Packet compression enhancements

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a method may include simulating a degradation of at least one of a first wireless communication link with a network or a different second wireless communication link with the network based on detecting that a first set of one or more packets, which were received via the first wireless communication link with the network and were added to a packet buffer, and a second set of one or more packets, which were received via the different second wireless communication link with the network and were added to the packet buffer, satisfy a threshold occupancy of the packet buffer. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Systems and methods for wireless communication

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a wireless communications system, a user equipment (UE) may receive a set of packets having a sequential order. The UE may initiate a first packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) reordering timer based on a first time stamp corresponding to unsuccessful decoding of a first packet in the sequential order. The UE may then initiate, prior to the expiration of the first PDCP reordering timer, a second PDCP reordering timer. The second PDCP reordering timer may be based on a second time stamp corresponding to unsuccessful decoding of a second packet in the sequential order. In some cases, the UE may initiate the second PDCP reordering timer after expiration of the first PDCP reordering timer, but may decrease the duration of the second PDCP reordering timer.

Multiple timers for effective reordering

In wireless communication, uplink communication by a wireless communication system user equipment may include providing data packets by a data source in the user equipment, detecting a pattern relating to uplink transmission of the plurality of data packets, and scheduling transmission of the plurality of data packets by the user equipment. One or more aspects of scheduling transmission of the plurality of data packets may be based on the detected pattern.

Systems and methods for uplink data scheduling in wireless communication systems

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to techniques for handling out-of-order grants. For example, upon detection of an out-of-order grant, the best scheduling policy for handling the out-of-order grants may be selected based on at least one traffic condition. In some aspects, a scheduling policy may involve canceling and regenerating out-of-order grants. In some aspects, a scheduling policy may involve reordering data units. In some aspects, a scheduling policy may involve designating a reorder time window.

Scheduling policies for out-of-order grants

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for quick radio link control (RLC) retransmission on hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) failure during tune away. According to certain aspects, a method for wireless communications is provided. The method generally includes performing communications with a base station (BS) using radio components tuned to a first air interface, detecting a tune-away of the radio components from the first air interface to a second air interface while performing the communications, and scheduling one or more packets for retransmission to the BS upon completion of the tune-away, wherein the one or more packets are one or more packets that failed to be transmitted due to the tune-away.

Quick RLC retransmission on HARQ failure during tune away

Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a transmitter device may determine a completion of a handover or a radio link failure after transmitting a set of physical data units (PDUs). The transmitter device may retransmit a PDU, of the set of PDUs, after completion of the handover or the radio link failure to enable decompression of the set of PDUs. A receiver device may receive the retransmitted PDU. The receiver device may decompress the set of PDUs based at least in part on receiving the retransmitted PDU. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Techniques and apparatuses for compression enabled bearer management

Aspects described herein relate to wireless communications. Protocol data units (PDUs) can be received at a network layer from one or more transmitting nodes using a link associated with each respective transmitting node. One or more missing PDUs can be detected based, at least in part, on sequence numbers of the received PDUs. A timer can be started based on the detection of the one or more missing PDUs. In response to expiration of the timer, and without receiving the one or more missing PDUs before the expiration of the timer, a lower network layer can be notified that the one or more missing PDUs are received to prevent attempted transmitting/retransmitting or other processing of the one or more missing PDUs.
