Method and apparatus for performing handover in wireless communication system
A method, performed by a terminal, in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a source base station, a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message for a handover, the RRC reconfiguration message configuring a first data radio bearer (DRB) as a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) bearer and a second DRB as a non-DAPS bearer, for the first DRB, in case that an uplink data switching is requested from an upper layer, indicating, by a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity for the DRB, a PDCP data volume excluding a PDCP Control protocol data unit (PDU) associated with the source base station, to a medium access control (MAC) entity for a target base station, and for the second DRB, in case that an indication of PDCP re-establishment is set, performing a PDCP re-establishment for the second DRB.
1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a source base station, a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message for a handover, the RRC reconfiguration message including information on indicating whether at least one radio bearer is configured as a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) bearer;
in case that the at least one radio bearer is configured as the DAPS bearer, configuring a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity based on the RRC reconfiguration message;
in case that the at least one radio bearer is not configured as the DAPS bearer, re-establishing a PDCP entity based on the RRC reconfiguration message; and
in case that an uplink data switching is requested from an upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer, indicating, by the PDCP entity, a PDCP data volume excluding a PDCP control protocol data unit (PDU) for an interspersed robust header compression (ROHC) feedback associated with the source base station, to a medium access control (MAC) entity for a target base station.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indication of PDCP re-establishment is not set for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
in case that an uplink data switching is requested from an upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer, indicating, by the PDCP entity, a PDCP data volume of the PDCP Control PDU associated with the source base station, to a MAC entity for the source base station.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
in case that the uplink data switching is not requested from the upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer, indicating, by the PDCP entity, a PDCP data volume, to the MAC entity for the source base station.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein a PDCP duplication is deactivated for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
triggering, by the MAC entity for the target base station, a buffer status reporting (BSR) based on the PDCP data volume excluding the PDCP Control PDU associated with the source base station.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
triggering, by the MAC entity for the source base station, a buffer status reporting (BSR) based on the PDCP data volume of the PDCP Control PDU associated with the source base station.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uplink data switching is requested from the upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer when a random access procedure is successfully performed on the target base station.
9. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor configured to:
receive via the transceiver, from a source base station, a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message for a handover, the RRC reconfiguration message including information on indicating whether at least one radio bearer is configured as a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) bearer,
in case that the at least one radio bearer is configured as the DAPS bearer, configuring a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity based on the RRC reconfiguration message,
in case that the at least one radio bearer is not configured as the DAPS bearer, re-establishing a PDCP entity based on the RRC reconfiguration message,
in case that an uplink data switching is requested from an upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer, indicate, by the PDCP entity, a PDCP data volume excluding a PDCP control protocol data unit (PDU) for an interspersed robust header compression (ROHC) feedback associated with the source base station, to a medium access control (MAC) entity for a target base station.
10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the indication of PDCP re-establishment is not set for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer.
11. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
in case that an uplink data switching is requested from an upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer, indicate, by the PDCP entity, a PDCP data volume of the PDCP Control PDU associated with the source base station, to a MAC entity for the source base station.
12. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
in case that the uplink data switching is not requested from the upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer, indicate, by the PDCP entity, a PDCP data volume, to the MAC entity for the source base station.
13. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein a PDCP duplication is deactivated for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer.
14. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
trigger, by the MAC entity for the target base station, a buffer status reporting (BSR) based on the PDCP data volume excluding the PDCP Control PDU associated with the source base station.
15. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
trigger, by the MAC entity for the source base station, a buffer status reporting (BSR) based on the PDCP data volume of the PDCP Control PDU associated with the source base station.
16. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the uplink data switching is requested from the upper layer for the at least one radio bearer that is configured as the DAPS bearer when a random access procedure is successfully performed on the target base station.
