Abstract
Techniques for sending information without interruption during a change in ciphering configuration are described. A user equipment (UE) communicates with a wireless communication network for a call. The UE sends first information to the wireless network using a first ciphering configuration. For a change in ciphering configuration the UE selects an activation time for a second ciphering configuration and sends a security message with the activation time. This activation time is the time at which the UE applies the second ciphering configuration to transmission sent to the wireless network. The UE thereafter sends second information (e.g. a measurement report message) using the first ciphering configuration after sending the security message and before the activation time. The UE sends third information using the second ciphering configuration after the activation time.

the transmitter entity delaying a suspension of transmissions occurring after receiving an acknowledgement for the first security message and before the activation time;
the transmitter entity sending second information using the first ciphering configuration after sending the first security message and before the activation time; and
the transmitter entity sending third information using the second ciphering configuration after the activation time.
16. The method of claim 15, wherein the transmitter entity selecting the activation time comprises
the transmitter entity selecting the activation time based on at least one message to send for the second information using the first ciphering configuration.
17. The method of claim 15, wherein the first, second, and third information and the first security message are sent in protocol data units (PDUs) with sequential sequence numbers, and wherein the transmitter entity selecting the activation time comprises
the transmitter entity determining an activation sequence number based on:
a sequence number of a next PDU to send,
a number of PDUs to send before the first security message,
a number of PDUs to send for the first security message, and
a number of PDUs to send using the first ciphering configuration after sending the first security message, and
the transmitter entity using the activation sequence number as the activation time.
18. The method of claim 17, further comprising:
the transmitter entity suspending sending PDUs with sequence numbers greater than or equal to the activation sequence number until an acknowledgement is received for the first security message.
19. An apparatus comprising:
means for sending first information using a first ciphering configuration;
means for selecting an activation time for a second ciphering configuration;
means for sending a first security message with the activation time;
means for delaying a suspension of transmissions occurring after receiving an acknowledgement for the first security message and before the activation time;
means for sending second information using the first ciphering configuration after sending the first security message and before the activation time; and
means for sending third information using the second ciphering configuration after the activation time.
20. The apparatus of claim 19, wherein the first, second, and third information and the first security message are sent in protocol data units (PDUs) with sequential sequence numbers, and wherein the means for selecting the activation time comprises
means for determining an activation sequence number based on:
a sequence number of a next PDU to send,
a number of PDUs to send before the first security message,
a number of PDUs to send for the first security message, and
a number of PDUs to send using the first ciphering configuration after sending the first security message, and
means for using the activation sequence number as the activation time.
21. A non-transitory processor readable medium for storing instructions configured to:
send first information using a first ciphering configuration;
select an activation time for a second ciphering configuration;
send a first security message with the activation time;
delay a suspension of transmissions occurring after receiving an acknowledgement for the first security message and before the activation time;
send second information using the first ciphering configuration after sending the first security message and before the activation time; and
send third information using the second ciphering configuration after the activation time.
22. The non-transitory processor readable medium of claim 21, and further for storing instructions configured to:
send the first, second, and third information and the first security message in protocol data units (PDUs) with sequential sequence numbers;
determine an activation sequence number based on:
a sequence number of a next PDU to send,
a number of PDUs to send before the first security message,
a number of PDUs to send for the first security message, and
a number of PDUs to send using the first ciphering configuration after sending the first security message; and
use the activation sequence number as the activation time.
