Abstract

A method of operating a radio access network (RAN) node includes determining whether packet duplication is activated for a split data radio bearer (DRB), associated to a user equipment (UE) and initiating transmission of an indication toward a trace collection entity of whether packet duplication is enabled for the DRB. A method of operating a management node of a core network of a wireless communication system according to some embodiments includes transmitting a minimization of drive testing (MDT) configuration associated to a UE towards a network node, receiving an indication of whether packet duplication is enabled for a split DRB associated to the UE, and adjusting how throughput is calculated for the UE based on the indication.
