  • Patent number: 8457072
    Abstract: An enhanced uplink user equipment is in soft handover. A radio network controller selects a primary Node-B out of a plurality of Node-Bs supporting the soft handover. The radio network controller receiving successfully received enhanced uplink data packets from the plurality of Node-Bs. The radio network controller reordered the successfully received enhanced uplink data packets for in-sequence deliver. The primary Node-B sends specified scheduling information to the user equipment that the other Node-Bs does not transmit. At least the primary Node-B transmits acknowledgements and negative acknowledgements to the user equipment.

  • Publication number: 20120120920
    Abstract: A wireless communication method and system for supporting an enhanced uplink dedicated channel (EU-DCH) inter-Node-B serving cell change. The system includes at least one wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) for transmitting data blocks, a target Node-B, a source Node-B and a serving radio network controller (S-RNC). The S-RNC includes a re-ordering buffer which stores data blocks correctly received from the WTRU. The S-RNC informs the target Node-B of a need for an EU-DCH inter-Node-B serving cell change from the source Node-B to the target Node-B. A medium access control (MAC) entity that handles EU-DCH functionalities is set up in the target Node-B. Hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes and transmission sequence numbers (TSNs) are not reset at the WTRU. Using a new data indicator, the WTRU transmits a data block to the target Node-B that was previously transmitted to the source Node-B, but was not correctly received by the source Node-B.
