identifying an uplink user data that awaits transmission;
identifying whether a size of the uplink user data is less than or equal to the data size threshold;
in case that the size of the uplink user data is less than or equal to the data size threshold, initiating the small data transmission for transmitting the uplink user data while the terminal is in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state; and

identify whether a size of the uplink user data is less than or equal to the data size threshold,
in case that the size of the uplink user data is less than or equal to the data size threshold, initiate the small data transmission for transmitting the uplink user data while the terminal is in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, and
in case that the small data transmission is initiated, transmit via the transceiver, to the base station, the dedicated random access preamble associated with, a message A (MsgA) of the 2-step random access and transmitting, to the base station, a RRC resume request message associated with the MsgA and the uplink user data associated with the MsgA.
