Abstract: After receiving a handover command (22) that commands a wireless device (16) to perform a make-before-break handover (24), the wireless device (16) continues to receive from a source link (20-0) downlink data packets for an unacknowledged mode bearer (21), until after the wireless device (16) establishes a connection with the target link (20-1) as part of the handover. After the wireless device (16) establishes the connection with the target link (20-1), the wireless device (16) receives from the target link (20-1) downlink data packets for the unacknowledged mode bearer (21). The wireless device (16) preserves a downlink data packet sequence number receiver status for the unacknowledged mode bearer (21), by using the same downlink data packet sequence number receiver status for the unacknowledged mode bearer (21) before and after the handover.

Abstract: A technique for forwarding data packets (730) during a handover of a radio device (100) from a source cell to a target cell of a radio network (702) serving as a time-sensitive networking, TSN, bridge (700) is described. As to a method aspect of the technique at the radio device (100), first TSN data packets (730) are forwarded in the source cell using a first PDU session (704) between the radio device (100) and a user plane, UP (300), of a core network, CN (720), of the radio network (702). Prior to releasing the first PDU session (704), a second PDU session (704) is established (404) between the radio device (100) and the UP (300) of the CN (720) in the target cell, wherein the first PDU session (704) uses a first active protocol stack at the radio device (100) and the second PDU session (704) uses a second active protocol stack at the radio device (100). Second TSN data packets (730) are forwarded in the target cell using the second PDU session (704).

The target access node then sends to the UE, only data packets which have not already been received by the UE from the source access node, based on the outcome of the duplication check.

Abstract: In response to determining circuitry determining that a portion of data to be sent to a recipient over an interconnect has a predetermined value, data sending circuitry performs data elision to: omit sending at least one data FLIT corresponding to the portion of data having the predetermined value; and send a data-elision-specifying FLIT specifying data-elision information indicating to the recipient that sending of the at least one data FLIT has been omitted and that the recipient can proceed assuming the portion of data has the predetermined value. The data-elision-specifying FLIT is a FLIT other than a write request FLIT for initiating a memory write transaction sequence. This helps to conserve data FLIT bandwidth for other data not having the predetermined value.
