Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure provide mechanisms for count synchronization in a wireless communication network. A respective count value may be maintained for each packet transmitted over a wireless connection, where each count value includes a respective hyper frame number and a respective sequence number. To synchronize a current count value associated with a current packet, a count synchronization may be initiated to transmit at least a current hyper frame number of the current count value over the wireless connection.
