Abstract:
1. A mobile device having a plurality of device interfaces for transmitting data received from a network through a network controller, the mobile device comprising: a data stack including an identity associating layer, the identity associating layer associating identifiers with packet data protocol contexts corresponding to the plurality of device interfaces; a general resource indicator generating a first indication in response to system memory of the mobile device being substantially exhausted; a private resource indicator generating a second indication in response to private resources corresponding to the plurality of device interfaces being substantially exhausted; a control processing unit generating a flow control indication signal in response to the first indication, the second indication, flow control information corresponding to the plurality of interfaces, and the identifiers associated by the identity associating layer; and a bit-map generator generating a bit-map, based on the flow control indication signal, discretely controlling transmission of data from the radio network controller to the plurality of device interfaces.
