Abstract
A wireless communication system and method are presented for reducing retransmission delays between a UE and an eNB. The UE is configured to establish a communication link to the eNB according to an interface protocol comprising at least a MAC layer and a RLC layer. The RLC layer is notified with at least a PDU data based on input from the MAC layer if no HARQ ACK is received when a maximum retransmission number is reached. A sequence number (SN) of the PDU may then be retransmitted from the RLC layer to the eNB.
