Abstract
The techniques introduced here provide a single, passive radio link control entity with a unified interface. The unified interface is configured to receive a request for a RLC service of a plurality of RLC services from upper and lower protocol layers. The unified interface is coupled with a processing module to process the request. The radio link control entity further includes a plurality of data transfer modules configured to provide data transfer between upper and lower protocol layers, the interface modules are coupled with the processing module and the unified interface. The single, passive radio link control entity provides bi-directional data transfer services for TM, UM, and AM data transmissions.
