Base station, user equipment and method for TCP transmission with dynamic TDD reconfiguration
First Claim
1. A method for forwarding to a Transport Control Protocol (TCP) receiver a TCP transmission sent from a TCP sender, the method comprising:
- determining, by a base station, Time Division Duplex (TDD) reconfiguration time required for a TDD reconfiguration that includes allocating a number of subframes, wherein the determination is based on a higher value between a first TDD reconfiguration time required by the base station and a second TDD reconfiguration time required by a user equipment (UE);
comparing, by the base station, the TDD reconfiguration time with a predetermined threshold;
suspending, by the base station, the forwarding of the TCP transmission to the TCP receiver during the TDD reconfiguration time if the TDD reconfiguration time is larger than the predetermined threshold; and
resuming, by the base station, the suspended forwarding of the TCP transmission after the TDD reconfiguration time has lapsed.

Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for forwarding to a Transport Control Protocol (TCP) receiver a TCP transmission sent from a TCP sender. The method includes: determining Time Division Duplex (TDD) reconfiguration time required for a TDD reconfiguration; comparing the TDD reconfiguration time with a predetermined threshold; suspending the forwarding of the TCP transmission to the TCP receiver during the TDD reconfiguration time if the TDD reconfiguration time is larger than the predetermined threshold; and resuming the suspended forwarding of the TCP transmission after the TDD reconfiguration time has lapsed. The present disclosure also provides a method for transmitting a TCP transmission to a TCP receiver, a base station and a user equipment.

8. A method for transmitting a Transport Control Protocol (TCP) transmission to a TCP receiver, the method comprising:
-
obtaining, by a user equipment, Time Division Duplex (TDD) reconfiguration time required for a TDD reconfiguration that includes allocating a number of subframes, wherein the obtainment is based on a higher value between a first TDD reconfiguration time required by a base station and a second TDD reconfiguration time required by the user equipment (UE); suspending, by the user equipment, transmission of TCP packets to the TCP receiver during the TDD reconfiguration time if the TDD reconfiguration time is larger than a predetermined threshold; and resuming, by the user equipment the suspended transmission of TCP packets after the TDD reconfiguration time has lapsed. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)
