Techniques are disclosed for avoiding reduction in throughput due to redundant transmission of downlink packets when a split bearer is deleted. A user equipment includes a transmission and reception unit to communicate with a master base station and a secondary base station simultaneously in dual connectivity; an RLC (Radio Link Control) layer processing unit configured to have an RLC layer for the master base station and an RLC layer for the secondary base station; and a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) layer processing unit configured to have a PDCP layer transmitting and receiving data to/from the RLC layer for the master base station and the RLC layer for the secondary base station. When the split bearer configured for the secondary base station is deleted, the RLC layer processing unit performs re-establishment on the RLC layer for the secondary base station and releases the split bearer after execution of the re-establishment.

A communication system comprising: input buffers adapted for buffering incoming data streams of samples from one or more channels; a receiver adapted for sequentially processing data from the input buffers; a processing rate of the receiver is higher than or equal to an incoming data rate of the incoming data; context memory adapted for saving an internal status of the receiver after processing the data corresponding with an input buffer before switching to a next input buffer and for restoring the internal status, wherein the receiver is adapted for processing the incoming data in a frame detection phase, and in a frame demodulation phase in which frames and/or subframes are demodulated into bits and wherein the internal status of the receiver related to an input buffer is only saved and restored in the frame detection phase or before and after demodulating subframes.

A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive a radio resource control message including first information used for configuring a number of more than one code block groups (CBGs) in a transport block (TB). The receiving circuitry is also configured to receive the more than one CBGs, the more than one CBGs comprising first CBGs and second CBGs. The UE also includes processing circuitry configured to determine a number of code blocks (CBs) from the TB. A first number, a second number, a third number, and a fourth number are given based on the number of more than one CBGs and the number of CBs. The first number is a number of the first CBG(s). The second number is a number of CB(s) comprised of each of the first CBG(s). The third number is a number of the second CBG(s). The fourth number is a number of CB(s) comprised of each of the second CBG(s).

Methods, systems and apparatus are provided for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive first uplink (UL)-downlink (DL) configuration information indicating a first UL-DL configuration, and may receive second UL-DL configuration information indicating a second UL-DL configuration. The WTRU may receive a physical downlink shared control channel (PDSCH) transmission in a DL direction of one or more first symbols in a first subframe. The DL direction of the one or more first symbols may be based on the first UL-DL configuration and the second UL-DL configuration. The WTRU may transmit first acknowledgement (ACK)/negative ACK (NACK) information in a UL direction of one or more second symbols in the first subframe. The first ACK/NACK information may be based on the PDSCH transmission. The UL direction of the one or more second symbols may be based on the first UL-DL configuration and the second UL-DL configuration.

Disclosed are improved retransmission schemes. In one embodiment, a retransmission method includes: receiving, at a protocol layer in a receiver, a data block transmitted from a protocol layer in a transmitter; determining that it is not possible to decode the data block; determining that it is not probable that the data block can be decoded; signaling, from the protocol layer in the receiver, to the protocol layer in the transmitter first feedback information indicating that the data block was received; and signaling, from the protocol layer in the receiver, to the protocol layer in the transmitter second feedback information including information related to the reception time of the data block and indicating that the data block is aborted.

Disclosed is an electronic device performing a video transmission using a multi-wireless network and a controlling method thereof. The electronic device for receiving and reproducing contents includes: a communicator, and a processor to receive, from an external device, a signal including original data of contents through a main frequency band, and receive, from an external device through at least one sub frequency band, a connection state signal including information on original data, and control the communicator to transmit, to the external device through the main frequency band and the at least one sub frequency band, a response signal including information on whether original data is missing, and an amount of received data stored in a buffer.

Systems and methods for broadcasting wireless data via one or more retransmission schemes to increase the packet reception in a wireless system. One or more devices of the system are configured to listen for an initial data packet from a source device. Should one or more devices successfully receive the initial packet, each device that received the packet can unconditionally retransmit a copy of the payload of the initial packet such that any device that failed to receive the initial packet payload has an opportunity to receive it during the respective retransmissions. Similarly, each device of the system can send acknowledgements to the other system devices that indicate whether they received the initial packet. Should one or more of the devices successfully receive the initial packet, the devices can conditionally retransmit a copy of the missing payload when one or more devices indicates they have failed to receive it.

A method for controlling media reception at an electronic device communicating with at least one external device includes establishing a communication session between the electronic device and the at least one external device via a server; in response to establishing the communication session, creating an instance of a first reception control state machine for controlling multiple media receptions in the communication session; receiving, from the server, a media transmission notification indicating that a media reception is available from an external device; receiving, from a user of the electronic device, an input for permitting the media reception; and in response to receiving the input, transmitting a media reception request requesting the media reception to the server and creating an instance of a second reception control state machine for controlling the media reception.

A wireless device receives one or more messages comprising: a parameter indicating that uplink duplication is configured for a bearer corresponding to a first logical channel and a second logical channel; first mapping restrictions of the first logical channel to at least one first cell; and second mapping restrictions of the second logical channel to at least one second cell. A control element indicating activation or deactivation of duplication for the bearer is received. If the control element indicates activation of the duplication, the first mapping restrictions are applied to the first logical channel and the second mapping restrictions are applied to the second logical channel. If the control element indicates deactivation of the duplication, the first mapping restrictions are lifted from the first logical channel and the second mapping restrictions are lifted from the second logical channel.

A user equipment is disclosed that includes a transmission and reception unit configured to communicate with a master base station and a secondary base station simultaneously in dual connectivity. The user equipment includes a Radio Link Control (RLC) layer processing unit configured to have an RLC layer for the master base station and an RLC layer for the secondary base station and a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer processing unit configured to have a PDCP layer transmitting and receiving data to/from the RLC layer for the master base station and the RLC layer for the secondary base station. When a split bearer configured for the secondary base station is deleted, the RLC layer processing unit performs re-establishment on the RLC layer for the secondary base station and releases the split bearer after execution of the re-establishment.
