Abstract

Presented are systems, methods, apparatuses, or computer-readable media for data forwarding in centralized unit (CU) and distributed unit (DU) split architectures. A DU may receive, from a CU, context information for forwarding of data from a wireless communication device that is in radio resource control (RRC) inactive state. The DU may receive, from the wireless communication device, the data from the wireless communication device that is in RRC inactive state. The DU may process the data according to the context information. The DU may send, to the CU, the processed data according to the context information.
