  • Apparatus and method for handling valid protocol data units
    Patent number: 9025433
    Abstract: An example apparatus is provided that receives a plurality of protocol data units (PDUs) formatted according to a standard that prescribes segmenting service data units (SDUs) into sequential PDUs. Each SDU is segmented into PDU(s), and each PDU includes data field element(s). The apparatus detects a current received PDU including data field element(s) that do not belong to a SDU, and handles the detected PDU. This handling includes one or more of (a) accepting the detected PDU but discarding the data field element(s) of the respective PDU; (b) discarding the detected PDU including the data field element(s) of the respective PDU; (c) processing the detected PDU and forming a SDU from the data field element(s) of the respective PDU; or (d) handling the error as a radio link failure. The apparatus then operates according to the standard with respect to the received PDUs after handling the detected PDU.
