Abstract

The subject matter described herein relates to data communication in wireless communication systems. The device determines availability of scheduled serving cell before data communication and informs a device the determined availability of the scheduled serving cell. Depending upon the determined availability, the device is controlled to perform the data communication on the scheduled serving cell or another available serving cell. In this way, the unfinished data communication, for example, retransmission of a data block in an uplink or downlink HARQ process can be continued on an available serving cell, whereby avoiding large transmission delay and throughput loss in the wireless communication system.
