Abstract

A base station device including: a transmitter configured to transmit, for each logical channel, first data of a first type and second data of a second type; and processor circuitry configured to: omit information about a data length of the second data in a MAC protocol data unit (PDU), place a medium access control (MAC) header in front of a MAC service data unit (MSDU) of the second data, and multiplex the first data and the second data, wherein the data length of the second data is omitted from the MAC header and an R bit (reserved bit) is set in the first bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

Claims (31)

1 . A base station device comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit, for each logical channel, first data of a first type and second data of a second type; and

processor circuitry configured to:

omit information about a data length of the second data in a MAC protocol data unit (PDU),

place a medium access control (MAC) header in front of a MAC service data unit (MSDU) of the second data, and

multiplex the first data and the second data, wherein the data length of the second data is omitted from the MAC header and LCID (Logical Channel Identity) field is set in six bits from the third bit up to the eighth bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

2 . The base station device of claim 1 , further an R bit (reserved bit) is set in the first bit and an R bit is set in the second bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

3 . The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the data length of the second data is fixed.

4 . The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the second type includes Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communication (URLLC).

5 . The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the first type includes Enhanced Mobile BroadBand (eMBB).

6 . The base station device of claim 1 , wherein the second data has a data size less than a data size of the first data.

7 . A terminal device, comprising:

a receiver configured to receive, for each logical channel, first data of a first type and second data of a second type; and

processor circuitry configured to process a data according to a medium access control (MAC) header placed in front of the second data,

wherein a medium access control (MAC) header is placed in front of a MAC service data unit (MSDU) of the second data,

wherein the first data and the second data is multiplexed, and

wherein a data length of the second data is omitted from the MAC header and LCID (Logical Channel Identity) field is set in six bits from the third bit up to the eighth bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

8 . The terminal device of claim 7 , further an R bit (reserved bit) is set in the first bit and an R bit is set in the second bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

9 . A wireless communication method comprising:

transmitting, for each logical channel, first data of a first type and second data of a second type,

omitting information about a data length of the second data in a MAC protocol data unit (PDU)

placing a medium access control (MAC) header in front of a MAC service data unit (MSDU) of the second data,

multiplexing the first data and the second data, wherein the data length of the second data is omitted from the MAC header and LCID (Logical Channel Identity) field is set in six bits from the third bit up to the eighth bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

10 . The wireless communication method of claim 9 , further an R bit (reserved bit) is set in the first bit and an R bit is set in the second bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

11 . A wireless communication method comprising:

receiving, for each logical channel, first data of a first type and second data of a second type,

processing a data according to a medium access control (MAC) header placed in front of the second data,

wherein a medium access control (MAC) header is placed in front of a MAC service data unit (MSDU) of the second data,

wherein the first data and the second data is multiplexed, and

wherein a data length of the second data is omitted from the MAC header and LCID (Logical Channel Identity) field is set in six bits from the third bit up to the eighth bit of the first octet in the MAC header.

12 . The wireless communication method of claim 11 , further an R bit (reserved bit) is set in the first bit and an R bit is set in the second bit of the first octet in the MAC header.
