Abstract:
A base station (BS) for handling buffer status reporting comprises a storage device and a processing circuit coupled to the storage device. The storage device stores, and the processing circuit is configured to execute instructions of: configuring a radio bearer (RB) and configuring a first logical channel (LC) and a second LC associated to the RB, to a communication device; configuring the communication device to report separate buffer statuses for the first LC and the second LC associated to the RB; receiving a first buffer status comprising a volume of data associated to the first LC and a second buffer status comprising a volume of data associated to the second LC, from the communication device; transmitting a first UL grant to the communication device according to the first buffer status; and transmitting a second UL grant to the communication device according to the second buffer status.

Claim (Index 4):
A communication device for handling buffer status reporting for data duplication, comprising:\n a storage device; and a processing circuit, coupled to the storage device, wherein the storage device stores, and the processing circuit is configured to execute instructions of: being configured a first radio bearer (RB) and being configured a first logical channel (LC) and a second LC associated to the first RB, by a first base station (BS); being configured to report separate buffer statuses for the first LC and the second LC; transmitting a first buffer status comprising a volume of data associated to the first LC and a second buffer status comprising a volume of data associated to the second LC, to the first BS; receiving a first UL grant from the first BS, wherein the first BS transmits the first UL grant according to the first buffer status; and receiving a second UL grant from the first BS, wherein the first BS transmits the second UL grant to the communication device according to the second buffer status.
