Method and apparatus for performing a connection re-establishment and retransmission of packets by user equipment in wireless communication system
The present invention relates to a method for transmitting a plurality of data units by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. In particular, the method includes receiving a message requesting a connection re-establishment from a network, and performing the connection re-establishment, wherein performing the connection re-establishment includes retransmitting all of one or more data units for which a discardTimer is running.
1. A method for transmitting a plurality of data units by a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer entity of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving a message requesting a connection re-establishment from a network, and
performing the connection re-establishment,
wherein performing the connection re-establishment includes re-transmitting all of one or more data units for which a discardTimer is running, and
wherein the one or more data units include at least one data unit of which successful delivery has been confirmed by at least one radio link control (RLC) layer.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein performing the connection re-establishment includes:
receiving a status report related to at least one of the one or more data units from the network; and
discarding the at least one data unit before performing retransmitting.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a flag to indicate retransmitting all of one or more data units for which the discardTimer is running.
4. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a memory; and
at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
receive, by a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer entity of the UE, a message requesting a connection re-establishment from a network, and
perform the connection re-establishment,
wherein the processor is configured to retransmit all of one or more data units for which a discardTimer is running when performing the connection re-establishment, and
wherein the one or more data units include at least one data unit of which successful delivery has been confirmed by at least one radio link control (RLC) layer of the UE.
5. The UE of claim 4 , wherein, when a status report related to at least one of the one or more data units is received from the network during performing the connection re-establishment, the at least one processor is configured to discard the at least one data unit before performing retransmitting.
6. The UE of claim 4 , the at least one processor is configured to receive a flag to indicate retransmitting all of one or more data units for which the discardTimer is running.
