Abstract

A pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE) is provided. A method of a receiver is provided. The method includes receiving packets to which a single SN is allocated, starting a reordering timer if there is a non-received packet, and requesting a retransmission of the non-received packet among the packets transmitted from a transmitter based on a received record message, if the reordering timer expires.

Claims (20)

1. A method of a receiver in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

identifying whether a sequence number of a second received packet is discontinuous based on a sequence number of a first received packet;

starting a reordering timer in case that the sequence number of the second received packet is discontinuous;

receiving, from a transmitter, a control message including information on a plurality of packets transmitted from the transmitter, wherein the information on the plurality of the packets includes a sequence number of a last transmitted packet and a bitmap indicating packets transmitted before the last transmitted packet;

identifying at least one not received packet among the plurality of the packets based on the control message; and

transmitting, to the transmitter, a status report message including a sequence number of the at least one not received packet in case that the reordering timer expires.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the status report message further includes the sequence number of the second received packet.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the control message is received based on at least one of period information, data size information, or packet number information.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the status report message further comprises determining packets not transmitted from the transmitter as received packets based on the control message.

5. A receiver in a wireless communication system, the receiver comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

identify whether a sequence number of a second received packet is discontinuous based on a sequence number of a first received packet,

start a reordering timer in case that the sequence number of the second received packet is discontinuous,

receive, from a transmitter, a control message including information on a plurality of packets transmitted from the transmitter, wherein the information on the plurality of the packets includes a sequence number of a last transmitted packet and a bitmap indicating packets transmitted before the last transmitted packet,

identify at least one not received packet among the plurality of the packets based on the control message, and

transmit, to the transmitter, a status report message including a sequence number of the at least one not received packet in case that the reordering timer expires.

6. The receiver of claim 5 , wherein the status report message further includes the sequence number of the second received packet.

7. The receiver of claim 5 , wherein the control message is received based on at least one of period information, data size information, or packet number information.

8. The receiver of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine packets not transmitted from the transmitter as received packets based on the control message.
