Abstract
A method and apparatus for minimizing data forwarding between Evolved Node Bs (ENBs) during a handover. A User Equipment (UE) sends a status report to an ENB of a source cell immediately before the handover occurs. In this manner a target cell avoids retransmission of the RLC PDUs which were successfully transmitted but have not yet been ACKnowledged (ACKed) by the UE thereby minimizing the amount of data being forwarded from the ENB of the source cell to an ENB of the target cell.

Claim
1. A method for performing a handover from a source cell to a target cell by a User Equipment (UE) in a mobile communication system, the method comprising: sending a measurement report on received signal strengths of adjacent cells, to an Node B of the source cell; sending, to the Node B of the source cell, a status report including a sequence number of successfully received packet data and a sequence number of missing packet data; and upon a receipt of a handover command from the Node B of the source cell, performing a handover.
2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: after sending the measurement report, receiving a handover preparation request from the Node B of the source cell; and sending the status report after receiving the handover preparation request.
3. The method of claim I5 further comprising: after sending the measurement report, determining whether the measurement report satisfies a handover condition predefined between the UE and the Node B of the source cell; and when the measurement report satisfies the handover condition, sending the status report
4. A User Equipment (UE) apparatus for performing a handover from a source cell to a target cell in a mobile communication system, the apparatus comprising: a measurement controller for measuring received signal strengths of adjacent cells; a radio resource controller for generating a message using the measurement result received from the measurement controller, and sending the generated message to an Node B of the source cell; and a radio link controller for, upon a receipt of a status report command from the radio resource controller, generating a status report message before performing a handover to the target cell, and sending the generated status report message to the Node B of the source cell.
5. The UE apparatus of claim 4, wherein the measurement controller determines whether the measurement result satisfies a handover condition predefined between the UE and the Node B of the source cell, and sends the determination result to the radio resource controller; and wherein the radio resource controller sends the status report command to the radio link controller according to the determination result of the measurement controller.
6. The UE apparatus of claim 4, wherein the radio resource controller sends the status report command to the radio link controller upon a receipt of a handover preparation request from the Node B of the source cell.
7. The UE apparatus of claim 4, wherein the status report message includes a sequence number of successfully received packet data and a sequence number of missing packet data.
8. A method for sending a buffer status report by a User Equipment (UE) in a mobile communication system, the method comprising: if a measurement report of a first type having a high handover-causing possibility occurs, sending a request for a resource allocation for a buffer status report to an Node B; sending a buffer status report including information on retransmission- required packet data over resources allocated by the request; and sending a measurement report and a downlink status report and retransmitting the retransmission-required packet data over resources allocated according to the buffer status report.
9. The method of claim 8, wherein the buffer status report further comprises a size of a downlink status report configured at a transmission time of the buffer status report, and a size of data stored in a buffer of a radio bearer group to which the measurement report of the first type belongs
10. The method of claim 9, further comprising: if the measurement report of the first type occurs, setting a priority of the downlink status report and the retransmission-scheduled data to a predetermined priority; wherein the buffer status report further includes an identifier of a radio bearer group corresponding to a priority to be applied to the downlink status report and the retransmission-scheduled data
