Abstract  Abstract

A plurality of report dictionaries e.g. uplink transmission backlog request report dictionaries are supported in a wireless communications system. Each report dictionary provides bit mapping definition information corresponding to a set of fixed bit size request reports. Different report dictionaries are structured to accommodate different reporting conditions needs and/or requirements. A communications device selects a report dictionary e.g. on a per connection basis to be used in communicating transmission backlog information from among the plurality of possible report dictionaries. Information characterizing active traffic flows such as the number of distinct quality of service profiles and/or the current mixture of best effort and latency constrained traffic flows is used in performing the selection of a report dictionary. The selected report dictionary is subsequently utilized to generate reports and interpret information communicated in those generated reports.
