Abstract

The disclosure relates to A communication method and system for converging a 5 th -Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4 th -Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method for efficiently processing PDCP control data of a PDCP layer device if a system supporting a high-reliability low-latency service employs a packet duplication transmission technology is provided.

Claims (42)

1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

determining whether a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) header is configured and whether an Ethernet header compression (EHC) is configured;

receiving data from a higher layer; and

performing Ethernet header compression for the received data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the SDAP header and the EHC are configured,

wherein the performing of the Ethernet header compression is not applied to the SDAP header or to an SDAP control packet data unit (PDU).

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein an EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered, and a PDCP header is not ciphered.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein an EHC header is not generated for the SDAP control PDU.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in case that both the EHC and a robust header compression (ROHC) are configured, a ROHC header is located after an EHC header.

6. A method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

determining whether a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) header is configured and whether an Ethernet header compression (EHC) is configured;

receiving data from a higher layer; and

performing Ethernet header compression for the received data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the SDAP header and the EHC are configured,

wherein the performing of the Ethernet header compression is not applied to the SDAP header or to an SDAP control packet data unit (PDU).

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein an EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered, and a PDCP header is not ciphered.

9. The method of claim 6 , wherein an EHC header is not generated for the SDAP control PDU.

10. The method of claim 6 , wherein, in case that both the EHC and a robust header compression (ROHC) are configured, a ROHC header is located after an EHC header.

11. A terminal comprising:

a transceiver capable of transmitting or receiving at least one signal: and

a controller coupled to the transceiver,

wherein the controller is configured to:

determine whether a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) header is configured and whether an Ethernet header compression (EHC) is configured;

receive data from a higher layer; and

perform Ethernet header compression for the received data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the SDAP header and the EHC are configured,

wherein the Ethernet header compression is not applied to the SDAP header or to an SDAP control packet data unit (PDU).

12. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header.

13. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein an EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered, and a PDCP header is not ciphered.

14. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein an EHC header is not generated for the SDAP control PDU.

15. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein, in case that both the EHC and a robust compression (ROHC) are configured, a ROHC header is located after an EHC header.

16. A base station comprising:

a transceiver capable of transmitting or receiving at least one signal; and

a controller coupled to the transceiver,

wherein the controller is configured to:

determine whether a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) header is configured and whether an Ethernet header compression (EHC) is configured;

receive data from a higher layer; and

perform Ethernet header compression for the received data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the SDAP header and the EHC are configured,

wherein the Ethernet header compression is not applied to the SDAP header or to an SDAP control packet data unit (PDU).

17. The base station of claim 16 , wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header.

18. The base station of claim 16 , wherein an EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered, and a PDCP header is not ciphered.

19. The base station of claim 16 , wherein an EHC header is not generated for the SDAP control PDU.

20. The base station of claim 16 , wherein, in case that both the EHC and a robust compression (ROHC) are configured, a ROHC header is located after an EHC header.
