Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may determine to discard a number of packets from a plurality of packets included in a packet stream. The plurality of packets may be associated with a context. The wireless communication device may determine that the number of packets to discard does not satisfy a threshold associated with the context. The wireless communication device may discard the number of packets. The wireless communication device may transmit the plurality of packets after discarding the number of packets based at least in part on the determination that the number of packets does not satisfy the threshold. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: A wireless device with dual connectivity may transmit split bearer traffic including a plurality of compressed data packets respectively to a first RLC entity of a first base station and a second RLC entity of a second base station and measure BLERs of the transmitted split bearer traffic. Based on the measured BLERs of the transmitted split bearer traffic, the wireless device may transmit uncompressed data packets to one or more of the first RLC entity or the second RLC entity. The wireless device may also reset a context memory and transmit the uncompressed data packets to the first RLC entity and the second RLC entity. A base station with dual connectivity may configure an LTE RLC entity with an RLC out-of-order delivery to deliver the received compressed data packets to an NR-PDCP entity without reordering the compressed data packets at the LTE RLC entity.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a method may include simulating a degradation of at least one of a first wireless communication link with a network or a different second wireless communication link with the network based on detecting that a first set of one or more packets, which were received via the first wireless communication link with the network and were added to a packet buffer, and a second set of one or more packets, which were received via the different second wireless communication link with the network and were added to the packet buffer, satisfy a threshold occupancy of the packet buffer. Numerous other aspects are provided.
