Abstract
According to an aspect, there is provided a distributed unit for a distributed access node. The distributed unit maintains, in a memory, information on a configuration of a first radio link control leg for a unicast data radio bearer or a single cell multicast radio bearer for point-to-point transmissions and a configuration of a second radio link control leg for the single cell multicast radio bearer for point-to-multipoint transmissions. The distributed unit receives channel state information and/or hybrid automatic repeat request feedback associated with one of the first and second radio link control legs being active from a terminal device and determines, based thereon, that improved efficiency is enabled if the second radio link control leg is set as active. The distributed unit transmits, to the terminal device, an activation command for activating downlink monitoring and decoding using the group radio network temporary identifier.
