IMPROVEMENT IN PACKET DATA CONVERGENCE PROTOCOL CONFIGURATION FOR INCREASING CHANNEL THROUGHPUT WITH ROBUST HEADER COMPRESSION

A wireless communication utilizes robust header compression efficiently with improved improvements in packet data convergence protocol configuration for increasing channel throughput. A user equipment (UE) receives a configuration indicating a first listing of header generic options that are supported between the UE and a first base station. The UE obtains a first packet including a first uncompressed header that indicates header parameters. The UE determines whether the header parameters in the first uncompressed header corresponds to at least one header generic option in the first listing of header generic options. The UE communicates the first packet that may have a first compressed header based on a first header compression profile or an uncompressed header depending on whether the header parameters in the first uncompressed header corresponds to at least one header generic option in the first listing of header generic options.
