Method and apparatus for data transmission in wireless communication system
A pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system is provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). The method for operating a primary base station in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting, to a secondary base station, an addition request message. The addition request message carries information of a secondary cell group (SCG) split bearer. The method further includes receiving, from the secondary base station, a response message of the addition request message.
1. A method for establishing a secondary cell group (SCG) split bearer in a dual connectivity between different radio access technologies (RATs) in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a primary base station supporting a first RAT comprising:
transmitting, to a secondary base station supporting a second RAT, a first message for requesting addition of the secondary base station, wherein the first message includes a first parameter about quality of service (QoS), which is a full quality requirement parameter received from a core network of the first RAT, and a second parameter associated with QoS that is admittable by a master cell group (MCG) determined by the primary base station for establishing the SCG split bearer; and
receiving, from the secondary base station, a second message,
wherein the second message includes a third parameter about QoS to be provided by the MCG determined by the secondary base station,
wherein the third parameter does not exceed the second parameter, and
wherein the first RAT is 4 th generation (4G) long term evolution (LTE) and the second RAT is 5 th generation (5G) new radio (NR).
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first message comprises information associated with a type of a bearer.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a QoS requirement for bearers of the primary base station and the secondary base station is guaranteed according to a sum of resources provided by the MCG and secondary cell group (SCG).
4. A method for establishing a secondary cell group (SCG) split bearer in a dual connectivity between different radio access technologies (RATs) in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a secondary base station supporting a second RAT comprising:
receiving, from a primary base station supporting a first RAT, a first message for requesting addition of the secondary base station, wherein the first message includes a first parameter about quality of service (QoS), which is a full quality requirement parameter received from a core network of the first RAT, and a second parameter associated with QoS that is admittable by a master cell group (MCG) determined by the primary base station of the MCG for establishing the SCG split bearer; and
transmitting, to the primary base station, a second message,
wherein the second message comprises a third parameter about QoS to be provided by the MCG determined by the secondary base station,
wherein the third parameter does not exceed the second parameter, and
wherein the first RAT is 4 th generation (4G) long term evolution (LTE) and the second RAT is 5 th generation (5G) new radio (NR).
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the first message comprises information associated with a type of a bearer.
6. The method of claim 4 , wherein a QoS requirement for bearers of the primary base station and the secondary base station is guaranteed according to a sum of resources provided by the MCG and secondary cell group (SCG).
7. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
transmitting broadcast information notifying that the secondary base station only supports serving per a network identity and the secondary base station is restricted from serving user equipments (UEs) which do not support the network identity.
8. A primary base station for establishing a secondary cell group (SCG) split bearer in a dual connectivity between different radio access technologies (RATs) in a wireless communication system, the primary base station supporting a first RAT comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled to the transceiver and configured to:
transmit, to a secondary base station supporting a second RAT, a first message for requesting addition of the secondary base station, wherein the first message includes a first parameter about quality of service (QoS), which is a full quality requirement parameter received from a core network of the first RAT, and a second parameter associated with QoS that is admittable by master cell group (MCG) determined by the primary base station of the MCG for establishing the SCG split bearer, and
receive, from the secondary base station, a second message,
wherein the second message includes a third parameter about QoS to be provided by the MCG determined by the secondary base station,
wherein the third parameter does not exceed the second parameter, and
wherein the first RAT is 4 th generation (4G) long term evolution (LTE) and the second RAT is 5 th generation (5G) new radio (NR).
9. The primary base station of claim 8 , wherein the first message comprises information associated with a type of a bearer.
10. The primary base station of claim 8 , wherein a QoS requirement for bearers of the primary base station and the secondary base station is guaranteed according to a sum of resources provided by the MCG and secondary cell group (SCG).
