Radio communication apparatus for retransmitting data
A radio receiving apparatus for receiving the variable-length RLC PDU data in an RLC layer includes the buffer memory sectioned into a plurality of areas having a predetermined maximum data length of the RLC PDU data. By referring to a sequence number SN included in each received RLC PDU data, the radio receiving apparatus stores the RLC PDU data having an identical sequence number SN into an identical area, and assembles an RLC SDU data on a basis of the RLC PDU data stored in each area.
1. A radio transmission apparatus for retransmitting data to a radio reception apparatus, the radio transmission apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to add a sequential number, first information and second information to each of a plurality of divided data which is generated by dividing the data to be retransmitted; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the plurality of divided data including the sequential number, the first information and the second information to the radio reception apparatus,
wherein the first information indicates a position within the data to which a head of the divided data corresponds, the second information indicates whether each of the plurality of the divided data is last data in the plurality of the divided data, and the sequential number identifies a sequence of the data to be retransmitted, the sequence being an order of the data before the data is divided.
2. A communication system having a radio reception apparatus and a radio transmission apparatus for retransmitting data to the radio reception apparatus,
the radio transmission apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to add a sequential number, first information and second information to each of a plurality of divided data which is generated by dividing the data to be retransmitted; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the plurality of divided data including the sequential number, the first information and the second information to the radio reception apparatus,
the radio reception apparatus comprising:
a receiver configured to receive the divided data including the sequential number, the first information and the second information from the radio transmission apparatus,
wherein the first information indicates a position within the data to which a head of the divided data corresponds, the second information indicates whether each of the plurality of the divided data is last data in the plurality of the divided data, and the sequential number identifies a sequence of the data to be retransmitted, the sequence being an order of the data before the data is divided.
3. A method for retransmitting data from a radio transmission apparatus to a radio reception apparatus, comprising:
the radio transmission apparatus adding a sequential number, first information and second information to each of a plurality of divided data which is generated by dividing the data to be retransmitted;
the radio transmission apparatus transmitting the plurality of divided data including the sequential number, the first information and the second information to the radio reception apparatus; and
the radio reception apparatus receiving the divided data including the sequential number, the first information and the second information from the radio transmission apparatus,
wherein the first information indicates a position within the data to which a head of the divided data corresponds, the second information indicates whether each of the plurality of the divided data is last data in the plurality of the divided data, and the sequential number identifies a sequence of the data to be retransmitted, the sequence being an order of the data before the data is divided.
