Abstract
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate formation and/or dispatch of radio link control (RLC) protocol status reports to a base station. The system can include components that quantify an absence of protocol data units, ascertain whether a number of absent protocol data units exceeds the size of a transmission side grant, insert a sequence number associated with a first absent protocol data unit into an acknowledgement sequence number field associated with a partial status report, incorporates the sequence number associated with the first absent protocol data unit in the partial status report, includes sequence numbers of subsequent absent protocol data units into the partial status report without exceeding the transmission side grant, and sends the partial status report to the base station.
