DATA COMPRESSION TECHNIQUES FOR HANDOVER AND RADIO LINK FAILURE RECOVERY
First Claim
1. A method of wireless communication at a source base station, comprising:
- determining that a handover of a user equipment (UE) to a target base station is to be performed;
identifying at least one gap in a sequence of packets received from the UE;
determining a data compression capability of the target base station; and
forwarding context information for the UE to the target base station, wherein the context information is based at least in part on the data compression capability of the target base station.

Abstract
A user equipment (UE) and source base station may use data compression techniques for data packets sent between them. During a handover, the source base station may provide data compression context to a target base station, thus enabling the target base station to continue the data compression following the handover without having to reestablish the data compression context. The source base station may determine data compression capabilities of the UE or the target base station, or both, and may communicate the determined data compression capabilities to the UE or target base station. The source base station may identify at least one gap in a sequence of packets received from the UE, and communicate the existence of the gap to the target base station, which may request retransmission of packets associated with the gap.
