Abstract
A first one of a wireless communication device (22) and a base station (20) performs a method for applying a change to a configuration or state of a radio bearer. The radio bearer supports the transfer of data over a radio connection between the wireless communication device (22) and the base station (20) with defined data transfer characteristics. The method includes performing a handshake with a second one of the wireless communication device (22) and the base station (20) to agree on a time to synchronously apply the change at the wireless communication device (22) and the base station (20). The method also includes, in accordance with the agreement, synchronously applying the change at that time.
