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 (40)

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

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

and

performing EHC for data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the EHC is configured,

wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header, and

wherein a PDCP header and the SDAP header are not ciphered.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the EHC header is not generated for an SDAP control protocol data unit (PDU).

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

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

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

performing EHC for data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the EHC is configured,

wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header, and

wherein a PDCP header and the SDAP header are not ciphered.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the EHC header is not generated for an SDAP control protocol data unit (PDU).

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

9. 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:

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

perform EHC for data in a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, in case that the EHC is configured,

wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header, and

wherein a PDCP header and the SDAP header are not ciphered.

10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered.

11. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the EHC header is not generated for an SDAP control protocol data unit (PDU).

12. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein in case that both the EHC and a robust header compression (ROHC) are configured, an ROHC header is located after the EHC header.

13. 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:

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

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

wherein an EHC header is located after the SDAP header, and

wherein a PDCP header and the SDAP header are not ciphered.

14. The base station of claim 13 , wherein the EHC header, which is generated in the PDCP layer, is ciphered.

15. The base station of claim 13 ,

wherein the EHC header is not generated for an SDAP control protocol data unit (PDU), and

wherein in case that both the EHC and a robust header compression (ROHC) are configured, an ROHC header is located after the EHC header.
