DATA DUPLICATION OVER RADIO LINK CONTROL CHANNELS

Abstract:

This disclosure describes methods, systems, and devices for efficient medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) signaling that controls uplink data duplication. In one example, a method involves generating a message including a MAC CE for indicating an activation or deactivation status of one or more radio link control (RLC) channels associated with packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) duplication. The method further involves encoding the message for transmission to a user equipment (UE).
