Abstract  Abstract

A method and apparatus for constructing a data unit to include control information the method comprising: receiving one or more service data units SDUs from an upper layer; generating a protocol data unit PDU using the received one or more SDUs wherein the PDU includes a header one or more control elements the received one or more SDUs or a number of available padding bits; inserting a Buffer Status Report BSR into the generated PDU; and transmitting the generated PDU including the BSR to a receiving side wherein the header includes a plurality of sub-headers wherein each of the plurality of sub-headers corresponds to a received SDU a control element or padding wherein the one or more control elements are placed before the received one or more SDUs wherein the number of available padding bits is equal to or greater than the number of bits associated with a short BSR plus a corresponding sub-header and less than the number of bits associated with a long BSR plus a corresponding sub-header wherein one of the one or more control elements has a corresponding sub-header that comprises a logical channel identification LCID field indicating that the BSR is included in the one control element wherein the LCID field comprises a value corresponding to a truncated BSR wherein the truncated BSR has a format that is equivalent to the short BSR and wherein the value indicates that data associated with more than one logical channel group is available for transmission.
