  • receiving, by the RRC layer of the UE, a radio link reconfiguration message from the RRC layer of the BS;

    requesting, by the RRC layer of the UE, that the MAC layer of the UE configure a response message in response to the radio link reconfiguration message;

    configuring, by the MAC layer of the UE, the response message in response to the request, wherein the response message includes Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) information configured at the MAC layer of the UE, and wherein the response message is decodable by the MAC layer of the BS; and

    transmitting, by the MAC layer of the UE, the response message to the MAC layer of the BS,wherein the response message is not sent via the RRC layer of the UE.
