UE-TRIGGERED CONNECTION RESUME WITH EARLY DATA TRANSMISSION AND NETWORK-TRIGGERED CONNECTION RESUME

摘要

Systems and methods for wireless device triggered connection resume with early data transmission are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method performed by a wireless device for triggering a connection resume with early data transmission comprises sending, to a radio access node, a first Radio Resource Control (RRC) message for resuming an RRC connection of the wireless device. The first RRC message comprises uplink data for early data transmission and Access Stratum (AS) Release Assistance Information (RAI). The AS RAI comprises information that indicates that no subsequent downlink and uplink data are expected, information that indicates that a single subsequent downlink data packet is expected, or information that indicates that multiple subsequent data packets are expected in downlink and/or uplink. The method further comprises receiving a second RRC message from the radio access node.
