Abstract
A method and device for duplicate PDU discarding. In one embodiment, a User Equipment (UE) establishes a direct path and an indirect path to communicate with a network. The UE also establishes a radio bearer, wherein the radio bearer is mapped to a first Radio Link Control (RLC) entity and a second RLC entity and wherein the first RLC entity is used for communication with the network over the direct path and the second RLC entity is used for communication with the network over the indirect path. In addition, a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) entity, which is in the UE and which is associated with the radio bearer, prevents from indicating to the first RLC entity to discard a first PDCP PDU when successful delivery of the first PDCP PDU is confirmed by the second RLC entity.
