Method for handling correctly received but header compression failed packets
First Claim
1. A method of processing data by a source base station in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:
- transmitting a first data block, to a user equipment, the first data block including a full header;
transmitting, to the user equipment, at least one second data block on which header compression was performed based on the first data block; and
forwarding the first data block and the at least one second data block to a target base station during a handover procedure, in order for the target base station to re-transmit the first data block and the at least one second data block to the user equipment, when the first data block was not correctly received by the user equipment and the at least one second data block was correctly received by the user equipment,wherein the forwarding the first data block and the at least one second data block to the target base station is determined by a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer checking a status of at least one second block received from the user equipment, andwherein the status of at least one second block is set to indicate negative acknowledgement by the PDCP layer, when the PDCP layer receives information indicating the first data block was not correctly received by the user equipment.

Abstract
A data processing method for a mobile communication system is provided. In a method in which a source base station processes data in a mobile communication system, a first data block including a full header and at least one second data block on which header compression was performed based on the first data block are transmitted to a user equipment and the first data block and the at least one second data block are then forwarded to a target base station during a handover procedure when the first data block was not correctly received and one or more of the at least one second data block was correctly received by the user equipment.

5. A method of transmitting and receiving data by a user equipment in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:
-
receiving, from a source base station, a first data block including a full header; receiving, from the source base station, at least one second data block on which header compression was performed based on the first data block; transmitting, by the user equipment, a negative acknowledgement for the first data block and a positive acknowledgement for the at least one second data block to the source base station; and re-receiving the first data block and the at least one second data block from a target base station after a handover procedure, wherein the at least one second data block, re-received by the user equipment, is determined by a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer of the source base station, and wherein the acknowledgement for the at least one second data block, to the source base station, is set to indicate negatively acknowledged by the PDCP layer of the source base station. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)
