Abstract  Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid a large peak processing requirement due to a tight delay constraint if any RLC PDU to be included in a MAC PDU has to be created after the determination of the size of this MAC PDU i.e. after E-TFC selection.

SOLUTION: A method and apparatus is used in advance of the E-TFC selection for the MAC PDU that will include one or more RLC PDUs in order to create these RLC PDUs. The apparatus may be configured to pre-generate RLC PDUs for transmission in a later TTI. The method and apparatus maintains an approximate match between the size of an RLC PDU and the size of the MAC PDU in which it is included. Maintaining this approximate match ensures that the RLC PDU error rate due to HARQ residual errors remains low.
