Abstract

A user equipment (UE) may utilize multiple radio link control (RLC) entities to duplicate packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) packets for improved reception. The UE may receive a configuration for dual connectivity with a master cell group and with a secondary cell group, wherein the configuration identifies a plurality of configured RLC entities, each RLC entity being associated with one of the master cell group or the secondary cell group. The UE may receive, at the UE, an indication of an activation status for each of at least a first subset of the configured RLC entities from one cell group of the master cell group or the secondary cell group. The UE may set the activation status of each of the first subset of the configured RLC entities that are associated with the one cell group from which the indication is received based on the indication.
