1. A method for improving link layer protocol synchronization between a transmitter and receiver in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

  • transmitting a plurality of successive protocol data units from the transmitter to the receiver, each protocol data unit having a corresponding new data indicator to distinguish each succeeding protocol data unit from a preceding protocol data unit;

    receiving a reset request from the receiver indicating that a protocol synchronization error has occurred; and

    aborting transmission of a current protocol data unit responsive to said reset request and transmitting the succeeding protocol data unit to said receiver with the corresponding new data indicator to distinguish the succeeding protocol data unit from the aborted protocol data unit.
