Abstract:
1. A method for communicating between a network and a mobile terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving a coded data unit from the network; determining whether the coded data unit can be successfully decoded; determining not to receive a transmission from the network for a first predetermined amount of time independent of whether the coded data unit is successfully decoded; determining not to receive a transmission from the network for a second predetermined amount of time when the coded data unit is successfully decoded; receiving a first indicator indicating that all segments of a segmented data unit have been transmitted by the network; determining whether all the segments of the segmented data unit are successfully received and successfully decoded; transmitting a second indicator to the network indicating a missing segment if all the segments of the segmented data unit are not successfully received; successfully receiving a retransmission of the missing segment; and not receiving a transmission from the network for the first predetermined amount of time when all the segments of the segmented data unit are successfully received and successfully decoded.
